Great news Liam and you wont be disappointed as they are fun machines to own and i have not yet seen to the same as they tend to be either painted different colours or something else is made a bit different and the one i owned was a very unusual TWIN piston chain drive version which went to i think Mirko but i put photo's on the Toy Steam Bible before it left my hands so click on the link and have a look.

Cheers David there are a few jobs to sort Steam inlet needs re soldering as it leaks from the engine frame and the sv is a mamod one but i guess that's not really an issue. All in all I'm happy can't wait to get it running
