So I got everything unpacked yesterday, and i finally found out how many Loco's I had brought back from the UK.
All of them are Steam, there is about 40 of them, one of them is a set my father obtained called the Sir Ralph Wedgwood it is a three set Loco covering from the 30s until they came out of service in the late 50s.
I will post pictures when I get around to it

it runs on solid fuel
I would love to get it running, it has run on compressed air with no problems

That Rob Roy train locomotive is really cool, I would love to see it up and running... The tractor was really cool too Shay, I liked how you stuck the camera on the back... Seems that it needs less horse power and more torque though, LOL

To top it off you had that wonderful song in there

unpacked

now that is cool,
The Rob Roy took about 4 years to build in total, it caused many fights between me and my father
I was thinking about building another one, a 2,8,2 loco but we shall see.
off topic i know but wanted to show it off

Thanks ....... big grin all over my face now.
When running on its own steam it is strong enough to pull 3 to 4 fully grown adults on a carriage .

Ahhhh...so we're not talking about an Aster or Mamod here, not when it can pull adults around.:thumbsup:
