Dear all,
I've not posted on here for a while, I suppose you could say I've been too busy building locos
With my petrol-electric test-bed becoming a bit of a dead-end, I've just embarked on a new project - a 16mm scale Kerr-Stuart Brazil, to Keith Bucklitch's design. At a total length of 255mm over buffer beams, it is much easier to move back and forth from uni than my 5" gauge loco! It is also my first steam loco.
These photos represent the loco after about 6 days work - the valve chests and cranks are also done, and the cylinder blanks cut.
Regards
James
