Hi Everyone!

Its time for you all to PM me your entries for August's engine of the month.

please include:

1, A Picture

2, Make / Model

3, Approximate Date of manufacture / Modification

a short recap of the rules!

1, Enter as many engines as you want but only 1 per person will get through the draw in James' flat cap to go into the poll.

2, Engine of the Month winner not eligible to enter in following months competition.

3, You must Own the engine you are entering.

4, The engine must be a toy steam engine or small scale model.

5, Winning engine not allowed to be re-entered again



this month I will accept entries until 11:59pm BST on Tuesday 8th July.

I will then randomly select 5 engines form the entries and then I will put up the poll.

thanks in advance Paul.

I have already entered one and plan to enter at least one more. I think there were 13 entries last month, and I hope we can get more this month.
