This 1/12 scale model was built in red/green to accompany the Ransomes Breakdown Crane. Known in British Railways days as "Cement Mixers". Every mechanical feature of the original is present and working. In addition the valve gear can be powered to forward or reverse position which determines the model's’direction of travel. It was built from official Doncaster Works drawings and many photographs. It won second prize in the International Meccanoman Competition.
