Hi Bruce and Daniel,

All the information helps, there doesn't seem to be a lot of information on the Henley about.  There appears to have been two models made, one with a flush deck 1923 -1929 and a later one with a spray cove which is the one I have. Both seem to have used the same ST engine and boiler. I found that I still have an early ST engine which I restored years ago, painted red but I expect I can manage to change that to Stuart Turner green or similar. A friend has a boiler which he will lend me so I can make a copy. There is a unused boxed boiler and burner available which I suspect will be above my budget, I know it is daft but given a choice I would probably prefer one I had to work on.

I will report progress which will be slow as there is still some work to be done on my model engineering club's garden railway ready for next years running season. There is also a re-design of our own garden railway due to the age and condition of both railway and operators.

Take care Tony.
