What's that poor TE1a do thats at the far left hand side of the line up? Is that your doner engine?

Cool, are you going to build it up using mamod parts?

James

I was going to, I got it off Manxman, I was going to build it up with Mamod parts but I am on the look out for Wells parts instead

I have a set that have been reserved for Tony. If someone can send me some scans of the dimensions for the fore and aft wheels, chimney and smokebox, port face/cylinder bracket I can get the foundryman at Amberley to cast them in Aluminium

Hmmm, if this were at school, and Sandy were female, I'd have said:
O Sandy, give us a Bowman and I'll forget about last night's bill

Have you managed to store em all away yet?

That's a cracking lot of gear mate, just as well I'm on the other side of the world, as there are a couple of pieces that I'd realy like to spirit away, .
Well done, I'll have to do the same with mine some day, too bleeding cold at the moment.
Cheers

Yeah. Rightfully so Chris, when I took my Jensen 75 out your way recently, I was worried 'bout the water in its boiler freezing!

Great Colection James

Many thanks guys! 
Moosey- yep, it's a SteamCo STC-01 (I think). I'll do pics of it when I get new batteries for the camera ( ). It is built really well, and I love it! It's a really nice little engine, solidly built, looks great aswell. I'd recommend one!
Chris- LMAO mate! If I get run over today then you all have chance to own them
SD- Errrrm, kind of Jammed them all onto my shelves in my room, on top of the wardrobe, everywhere, and stil got some on the floor Mum keeps telling me to sell them, and I reply with 1 word- "investment"
Clinton- Aww thanks mate
Manx- Cheers mate
GJ- Thanks mate(s)

I think the forum will agree...a new camera for you James was like opening the shutters and peeking in...most of us had no idea your collection looked so good. It is finally getting some much needed exposure. Good camera, great collection!!
