Steam loco help

[I’m SpartacusParticipant @imspartacus71241]

Hi, new here and looking for advice/information, since the passing of my uncle a few weeks ago I've inherited this steam engine, its about 4 feet long 3.5 inch gauge [built by my grandfather in the late 50s/early 60s] as far as I can find its a 'miss ten to eight' model Any experts, with info, value for insurance or pointers to websites I would be grateful, I also have a part built traction engine with Bassett Lowke plans, thanks, happy new year.

yes its a miss ten to eight,a very old design,value would mainly depend on the condition of the boiler as these are far and away the most exspensive part,if it has a boiler certificate its worth more.
