	Builder of far too many projects, but I love them all. The more Locomotives you have building, the more solutions to other Projects Problems get Solved. Reworking Simplex into a Fowler Complex. Making a Jinty more to scale. And going up a size in the shape of a Jessie.

Thank, yes a very nice model, but the angles used could have been formed a bit tighter on the frame, or use office table legs like some!!!.

Interesting to see the boiler tube layout as this differs from our drawings.
