My goodness me Ray, that's amazing detail on the front steam cylinder...magnificent sir...
Thanks for all the extra photos, very much appreciated..
Cheers, crowie
PS - I hope you're training that little bloke in the background of an early photo in the art of wooden toymaking plus I hope he has his own and doesn't want this masterpiece to play with....

WOW & WOW Ray.... this is one awesome train you're building with all the lights, bells & whistles....love it.
Now getting back to the mystery sproket in one of the earlier photos; I saw what looks like a drive gear on the centre axle of the trains main wheels and what might be considered a battery & motor box behind it.....Am I on the right track or heading for a cliff????
Cheers, crowie

If you are referring to THIS par it is for keeping all axis straight allowing very minimal movement side-wise so they can turn around as effortlessly as possible...does this answers your question crowie? Originally Posted by crowie

Ditto on what Trev said. The extra detail really adds to the authenticity. It is a great locomotive.
