Now for the physical business! This chassis is what I intend to use for the three Manning Wardle engines I have planned. The valve gear and cylinders are a placeholder - when the test bodyshell comes back, I will be using this as a template to add the cylinder block to the plastic bodyshell.

I am going to design the valve gear separate to the bodyshell thereafter. I am undecided as to how exactly I am going to do it yet, but it's all in the fun of learning how to do all this.

Until next time!
