Samson Locomotive Works

CCairns · Samson Locomotive Works

Anyone ever heard of a model steam locomotive builder or upgrader called 'Samson Locomotive Works' with an address of Kenton, Middx I believe in 1988?

Rob

no, i have'nt. what would he do for upgrades then?

It is actually from a Makers plate in the cab of a loco I've just bought.

It was sold as a home built using an early Mamod, but the pipework looks too good to be home built, and looks to be more professionally engineered and manufactured.

As I'm hopeful of going to STIA this year I am leaving posting any further details of this loco until it has been run as my mystery loco on one of the track layouts there, or on my rolling road.

Rob

im looking forward to that then. i'd love to show my loco off aswel (no different to any though) if there is a track to run her on.

Hi Titan,

I am now confirmed as coming to STIA this year (subject to any last minute family emergencies), so I will be bringing my William plus this mystery Samson Locomotive Works loco. I'm also going to bring my Prescott rolling road which will probably be required for action on the Forum tables, and I'll get my video wagon sorted out as well.

I look forward to being able to run my locos on your track hopefully.

Rob

i take its O guage as it says you used mainly mamod track?
