We have a growing community of regular posting members who chat about all aspects of toy and model steam.          The Unofficial Mamod and Other Steam Forum Forum Index -> Meet the members! Flash New member saying hi. Hello all my name is Les but I see somebody already beat me to that name on here.  My interests lie with Manods of the 60s/early70s and those only with meths burners rather than solid fuel. I had an SE1 and a steam roller in my pre teens and early teens hence my interest in this era. I never did find out what happened to them but suspect my mum gave them away to some school jumble sale or other.     I have a total of 6 engines 3 static (along with various tools) and 3 mobile (with various trailers etc) all of which I shall be showing on here when I get round to it. I have started with showing my Mamod Roadster which is a recent eBay purchase and have put a short video of it running for the first time today which you can view in the video forum. Les.
