Hi All

Debated whether to put this here or 'Off topic' but it's distinctly steam and very interesting (I think!)

Click on the thumbnails and you can see information and movies of the 'creations' in action!

Cheers

Do they all need boiler certs!!! David.
	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.

Looking at them, I'd say they all would come under the 3 bar-litre ruling so non would require testing.
	Simon. Tich, Invicta, Clayton lorry, 0.3cc Diesel, FD3/64 gas turbine. Weise Flying Scotsman part built, Seal 15cc part built. Currently researching 8th scale 14xx 0-4-2t and a 7.793 scale 2-6-2..... Now got a 3/4 acre garden to put a track round :-)
