17 - GWR Dukedog - 4 - 4 - 0 in 5"G .
This is another GWR engine , the model designed by Keith Wilson , this engine has inside cylinders with the valves at the bottom , a challenge but all went well to my surprise it ran smoothly , the valves did not give any trouble in running ( I did have some problems in building and setting up which I solved ) . Like some other engines this one was lately sold to a member in our club . See video and attachments .

18 - Asia 2 - 4 - 0 tender engine in 5"G
There were only six of these engines built , three were named after continents and three were just numbered , the model is of Asia , it has inside cylinders , is a good steamer but not very good hauler due to its light weight and lack of adhesion .see video and attachments .
