very nice Nigel you've got an IMLEC winner there Hi All, Thanks for the kind words, only took 2 days and 1 night shift to sort out the photo bit, Loco took 5 1/2 years to build. Ernie is still clean and has only been steamed 6 times, with me still learning to fire being the biggest problem. Loco was named after my dad who sadly never sore it finished. Just started on my next loco, 5" NG "Dholpur" from GLR. Will be collecting the laser cut bits from Model engineers laser, In January at the London show, just hope the drawings I did were correct!!, with the castings I already have I think about 2 years of machining to start with. I have a Quote for the Boiler from Steam Technology, which seams very good and will more than likely go with. Have a good new year all. Regards Nigel |
