Black 5 Inc Caprotti Variants
|
Slaters Reference in brackets
|
|
This kit is a redesign of an earlier
Black 5, (Which is also available through Acme),
but this kit will enable the builder to build all the variants within
the class, including the Caprotti (high and low
running plates), and the L.W.B and the Ivatt prototypes (the kits
is of very high specifications and detail, with the provision to make
the Caprotti valve gear shafts rotate). This is
not the only kit of this prototype on the market, but if you are interested
in building a 'Black 5' of any variant, then this is probably the most
highly detailed one available.
