A spark arrestor designed to slip over the chimney of the Hornby/Dapol OO Gauge model of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway (L&YR) 0-4-0ST "Pug" locomotive. The fit is relatively tight and so the spark arrestor does not require glueing in place meaning that it can be fitted/removed at will.

History

In 1916 four of the Aspinal desgined 0-4-0ST "Pug" locomotives built by the L&YR were fitted with spark arrestors to enable them to work safely at the Aintree munitions factory.
