Just arrived from Doncaster Works a Billy with tender. It seems odd to match a Fowler tender to a German style loco but it really works. On request Roundhouse will fit a draw bar to Billy so it can become a tender loco. The draw bar is adjustable so with radius 3 you can have a snug fit.
It runs like a dream straight out of the box. The excellent Planet Radio is supplied. Attached are some pics.

Now, just think of that tender hauling real coal behind the new Sabre Steam Annabelle!

Happy Steaming!

Thanks for posting the pics of of the green Billy. This loco certainly looks better with a tender. Our Billy is now loose enough to be pulled out of steam. Below is a pic of it being towed to Abercanyon Depot; Also a pic showing the flexible draw bar for the tender.
