You can see where Wilesco got their ideas from, can't you.

You sure can. I'm sure that's the best collection of Fleischmann engines I've seen.
Good on you Les, another fine part to your ever growing set of steam models.

Thank you both, once I get one more this set should stop growing.

No it is a case of only one more, the 135/2, and then I should stop.

No wonder!
Wilesco only started making steam engines, because they hired a man. This special man did his normal work on making hooks and scoops (wilesco's first products) then he suggested to wilesco to make stean engines....
Why he did?....Before he came to Wilesco he worked for Fleischmann
So that's how and why they started making engines

Les, You're not planning on collecting all the variations of each model number.  
Great collection. 
Very fine engines indeed.

Thank you,
I did think about it but no, one of each model number will suffice, but I have seen a very nice 120 which is a later model.
What were the 12 steps to salvation again?
