LocosI am currently re-arranging my room so I can fit in a new layout (thanks Paul  ) and decided to give Anna's box to my SEL Major, which has been sat on the floor for the last couple of weeks. I have also put away my two Mamod coaches which came in the RS3A set to create more room to put the SL3 and Anna on display:
You can clearly see how Anna towers over the SL3, although the rail height has something to do with it as well 
You may have noticed an unoccupied piece of Mamod track next to 'Anna', this is not for Victor. More tomorrow

I know you know MM, but do you really know that I know what I am getting?

Steam the SL3? Never!
You will have to wait until tomorrow I am afraid, just to keep you all in suspense (well, not MM seeing as he knows what I know )

I thought someone talked you into steaming it at an exhibition or something

He has an MSS loco, its exactly the same, no point in firing it....

Cheers MM 
I may do what Nick has done and open a new thread to put in all my purchases for 2008, once they have arrived that is

Jim, Chris (Garratt100) nearly succeeded in getting me to steam it. Although I really like looking at it, when it is sat on top of the bookcase

Good to know someone shares the same way of thinking

Aye, I have an SL2 and my brother has a POW loco, I don't see the point in firing a loco thats exactly the same as all the others, its just painted a different colour
I'm proud to say I own several dust collectors But I also own a load of engines I use!
A healthy balance

Best way to go really
Because I go to so many shows to run my engines, the majority of engines run.
Having said that, the whole of my collection runs except those in bits and the SL3

Why do I get the feeling Anna is being outnumbered?
|
Mamodman123

Damn they look good!
You do need an SL1 though! How good would that look?
You've got the hard parts out the way, the SL2 and SL3
|
Minor1PJG

Great stuff Simon. As MM says you've now got the hard to find locos, so you might as well complete the set with a SL1.
Would you then need the 4,5 & 6 though 
|
Wallace
|
Great stuff MTA.
Anna is impressive
|
MTA
|
Yes, after the SL1 I would need the 4, 5 & 6! Although I thought they would be harder to acquire (minus the SL1) than the SL2 and SL3...
Thanks Wallace, when I get round to running Anna I will be sure to post a video

Damn!! I was sure you were going to fire it! lol
Seems such a crime to have a live steam loco & not fire it...
You wait till i see you at Stoneleigh Simon, i'll have to give you a good talking too!! lol
Chris.

Although I am not going to Stoneleigh, so you may have to wait a bit longer Chris
