Burrell Showmans - 'G T Tuby & Sons Grand Scenic Railway' (Ex-Mayor)

The Ex Mayor modelled here was built in 1925 for the amusement caterer GT Tuby & Sons of Doncaster.  The engine was of a special design and was the only one built as a 10nhp Special Scenic Showmans Road Locomotive.  It was purchased to haul and power the Scenic Railway that Tuby’s travelled.  However, the ride was sold just prior to the engine arriving so it spent its working life driving the dodgems.

Its driver Frank Cheffins saved the engine from the scrap yard in the 1940s and sold it on.  It passed through several owners including the Rt Hon. Sir William McAlpine where it took pride of place amongst his fine collection of steam and vintage exhibits.  It now resides with the Saunders Collection in Bedfordshire and is exhibited all over the UK and in Europe.

The Corgi Vintage Glory of Steam range represents a collection of nostalgic models from bygone days of steam transport and features legendary names like Foden, Burrell, Fowler and Garrett.

Perfect for every steam rally enthusiast, each 1:50 scale die-cast traction engine is supplied in a Vintage Glory of Steam branded box and its limited edition certificate.
