OO Gauge 141, Dapol L&YR Pug Kit C026, Assembly, Crane Lifting

This is my hundred and forty first video on my work with OO gauge. See part 1 of this series for my reasons for getting into OO gauge, when I already had a lot invested in working in N gauge, and I didn't really have space available for a large, fully operational OO gauge layout. Also see my lengthy series on my N Gauge railway modelling for smaller and more complex scenery, and smaller scale trains running. This part will be a kit build video, with a bit of a difference. I'll be building Dapol Kitmaster kit C026, for an 0-4-0 saddle tank locomotive, which is, I believe, based on the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Class 21. I don't normally build dummy locomotives - that is static models that don't run at all and are just for show. I bought this kit with a very specific end in mind. In several of my previous videos I've shown railway cranes, in which I have a particular interest. I introduced several crane models in Part 123, restored an old Hornby Dublo breakdown crane in Part 124, and showed my new Bachmann Ransomes & Rapier breakdown crane in Part 132. I would have liked to have shown those cranes lifting a locomotive, as they would often have been required to do… and I tried; but even the lightest working model loco that I had was too heavy for the cranes to manage - the weight of my lightest loco model was simply heavier than the model cranes could lift without falling over and / or unravelling. I demonstrated the cranes using lighter loads - containers, stripped-down wagons. But I kept in mind the idea of lifting a loco with a breakdown crane, and I thought that the likeliest path to that would be by building a loco from a plastic kit. I then ran into something of a problem, as my prototype for my OO gauge layouts is LMS operations in the 1920s and 1930s… and pretty much all of the plastic kits of locos that are available are either for post-war locos or for Southern of GWR locos. The only kit that I could find that could be made to fit into my pre-war LMS prototype was this one, which is listed as an 0-4-0 T BR Pug, but appears to be based upon the L&YR class 21, which was a class operated by the LMS - and I do have a working model of this class, Hornby R2065, which I showed in Part 115 (and it's shown up a couple of times since). As always, if you have any questions about anything that I say or show in this video, or you would like more information about anything, please post in the comments below, and I will try to respond.
