  7. Hi Chris, Thank you for that, the loco is powered aswell as the tender.i like the idea of the engine being powered and doing the work but the single wheeler Just need a bit of help. All a bit trial and error, I Will Just have to see how it goes.

  11. Hi Mike, if you do etches for the 12 wheeler Will they be available John
  12. Hi, I started this Jumbo years ago at Expo EM when Penlan was on show. For some reason I Just couldnt get it running that well..... So I had a spare set of etches for a jumbo so I made up a new chassis and it runs beautifully. Then I had a look at the body etches and.............. Well. .........

  14. Just a few details to do and the Lady is finished
  15. I have done the operating rods for the drain cocks. I didnt use the etched part in the kit as it seemed to be a bit on the big side. I do feel how ever that these may be quite delicate. They need a bit of cleaning up.
