Title: prototype to the pp56 maybe?
Post by: millarart on June 20, 2015, 10:48:13 PM

this came with a few weights I purchased today its different than the pp56 but has the same train but to me the train looks bigger than that in the pp56, this weight is only 2 and halve inches wide and two inches high so also smaller than the pp56 so may have been one of a few different styles the tried before choosing the pp56 one , I have seen one other different styled weight containing the train , P cane on base ,

Hi.  I think a one-off / trial piece is quite likely.  There were a lot of one-offs: the latest Perthshire book illustrates over 60 different ones, and I have seen quite a few others.
