    Thanks for the pictures/video David ... the other 5/8ths and I used to enjoy visiting the various steam events around the UK so when we cast your videos on to our tv out here it's the next best thing and truly appreciated ... with a glass of tinto of course ... :thumbs:

    Superb pictures and video David, thank you for sharing because it's images such as these that can be a great aid to scratch building locomotives. :tophat:

    Thanks. Not been down there for a good few years myself, so it was nice to drop into Kidderminster for a while.


    Thanks Ian; save me a drop of tinto for next time!


    Thanks Paul. Always glad to inspire any budding scratchbuilders!
