Archive for The Unofficial Mamod and Other Steam ForumThe Original Toy Steam Forum Established 2006 The biggest, most popular global steam forum around! Accept NO imitations! We have a growing community of regular posting members who chat about all aspects of toy and model steam.
Sorry I got a bit confused about how to do it so I'm starting again.
Over the next 2 days I will be uploading lots of videos and photos under this same heading so you will have to keep coming back to check on my progress
By the way, I have only started my collection since July this year when I first joined this forum and I have to say it's been a great help to me which is why I thought I would contribute as much as possible.

I was thinking that it was that the Minor 3 has a windshield (windscreen I guess for you).

I know is has nothing to do with steam engines, but the other week at the canal museum I spotted this sign which looks like it's had a bum deal and I could not resist the temptation to show you all.

various engines running

This is a scratch built job I picked up a few days ago as a non-runner and in poor condition.
But now looking better and running

That's a very good collection to have put together in so short a time. You have a couple of nice marine engines there.... any plans for a boat?
(I used to have a 'Minor3' too, with a split windscreen, but it wasn't in such good condition. I wouldn't be surprised if its still going somewhere though.)

This one I got not long ago, it's a home made one and was a non-runner when I got it
