Originally conceived and built for a large public railway that unfortunately closed before her completion. Since completion she has resided at Woodseaves Model Railway, Salop, which is a little too small for her power and size. She has seen little serious running due largely to the pandemic, but is now beginning to ease out nicely and is running very sweetly, though will no doubt improve further with more use. A sliding roof hatch is fitted for easy driver vision of the controls and pressure gauge. The name 'Gordon Too' comes from a couple of sources. This is the 4th 7 1/4 inch gauge locomotive he has built. Hence running number No 4 is inescapable, as is Gordon as Four consecutive generations of his immediate family have Gordon in their name. He likes blue! The great Rev. Awdry had No 4 as 'Gordon, the big blue engine', so this just had to be Gordon as well (Too). "Or the Grand-children would have rebelled!".
