Latest O Gauge Purchase – 1P

Went to the KLOGGIES summer bash today, not looking to buy anything. While we were there a trader had this Johnson 1P 0-4-4T on his stand and although it is very well built and an excellent runner, I was not convinced I needed it. Later in the day I went back and after negotiation a discounted price was agreed, the clinchers being it was an S & D numbered loco and it was Push Pull fitted, it was also a small wheeled variant, I already have a Johnson 1P, but that was a LTS loco and a larger wheeled variety.

I intend to do a partial repaint and put on new lining, but retain the same number and equipment. The Cab Roof is loose at present, but fits well. Very happy with the purchase.
