LBSC design a 2-8-4T loco?

[JC Uknz 1Participant @jcuknz1]

Did LBSC or anybody else design a 2-8-4 tank loco in 3.5" gauge? I have found Heilan Long [or something] but she is only a 2-8-2T

As anewly joined member of this forum my inquiry was delayed and the loco was sold at auction before I got a reply … it was minus most backhead bits and supposedly some steam pipes but otherwise looked good … went for approx UKP650 … don't know if that was a bargain or not.

JC Uknc,

LBSC designed a River Styx 2-6-4T in 2 gauge in 1927.

Henry Greenly also designed several in various gauges.

Helen long is a 4-8-4 in 2.5".

Look here for a good example of the model.
