[modeleng] Poultney Locomotive

Displacement activity time. I've a load of examination papers to mark, 
guttering to repair and some fancy rats to clean out. So I'm reading a book 
called "Engines" by Prof E N Da Candrade. It is dated 1945 and is based on some 
Royal Institution Christmas Lectures. I think it is actually rather earlier 
there is no reference to gas turbines and the epitome of LMS lococomotives is 
said to be the Royal Scots. So I guess 1930s.

Anyway there is a reference to and a plate showing a "Poulteny" locomotive made 
by the Yorkshire Engine Co. The plate shows a biggish 2-8-2 + 0-8-0 numbered 
730 & reminding me somewhat of Fowler Midland locos.

If any one could tell me more I'd be glad to hear of it.
