Hi Mike,

Lilla is a 3 1/2 in gauge loco. You are probably confused because being a narrow gauge prototype then this gives a 3 1/2 in gauge model which is similar in overall proportion to a 5 in gauge standard gauge loco. David is correct that E in M did include the Lilla consruction articles. Drawings and castings are still available from Blackgates ( Leeds ). If you requre a commercial boiler then you could be looking in the region of £1500 !

Regards, Colin
