Mamod SL1i recently purchased a mamod sl1 from ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAP...RK:MEWNX:IT&item=140325865204
it arrived today and was rushed from its packaging.
it was oiled, lit up and ran on blocks.
it says that it had only been run 5 times, and ran super first time.
i gave it a run on my track outside and ran sweet.
this loco will provide the base for some nice modifications.

haha, yes it deffinately does odilon
this one and the other sl1 i had 2 years ago run sweet as
he runs at a very low tick over, and can also jump off the track which bent the chimney last night, but is ok now.
im planning on modding it to improve performance and apperance.

had another run tonite with the high pressure safety valve, and it ran a treat with just the slightest regulator
it realy has potential for modifications
