Can anyone advise the manufacturer, the age of the HO 0-4-0T shown in the attachments, or any other information? The construction is mainly brass castings, raised lettering and riveting, with baked on enamel paint, and may have been kit bashed. The motor is vertically mounted in the cab and drives the rear axle via a worm gear.

The prototype A.H. Peppercorn was an LNER 4-6-2 Pacific named after an LNER Chief Designer, so why that name on this little guy?
