In January this year we published a list of our Stationary Engine Collection, see: The_Stationary_Engine_Collection.pdf (sandstone-estates.com)

Our pride and joy is the National Engine from 1935.

Sandstone’s two Lawleys, BR7 and NG97, are the inspirations for the new Accucraft models.

Accucraft are famous for their live steam models and David Fletcher visited us some time ago to measure up our Decauville for a model. Now they are proposing a 1:19 scale model of the Lawley locomotive with drawings by David Fletcher and information from Andries Keyser, a good friend of Sandstone. You can see full details of the project at the following link:

On the 23 June we showed our CAT 621 scraper taking on a new coat of paint. See Spraying the CAT and rescuing the Combine. (sandstone-estates.com)

Our picture today shows the Scraper stepping out resplendent in its new bright yellow livery.

To celebrate the Springbok’s victory over the British & Irish Lions on their recent tour of South Africa, our Funkey Diesel has been given a makeover in green and gold!
