VI Steam LimosineBought this today.
May not see handrail pics for a while as the seller was only 15 minutes from my father's house in UK, so we did a pick up.. Maybe I'll have him take some pics with a few tulips.

Oooo thats a cracker Richard!
The Limo is one of the underrated mobiles in my opinion! A lot like the roadster, granted, but all cars are cars, some are better than others of course 
Tulips  thats if they haven't been blown away

It's supposed to be unfired, in very good condition. I guess we'll see.

Real Classy looking Mobile! | ||||||||
| Mister Occlusion |
Nice
If I had a decent spot to run one, I'd go for the Lemans (but only because it's a ~twin~  ).

Very nice machine there.

Well I like that loads. In my view it's what Mamod now do best Their range of models built on the roadster idea are all good fun and a car is well worth having in any toy steam collection. The silver Limo is the most common version of the model (after the white roadster) and has been produced in large numbers since it was introduced in 1984. | ||||||||

That is very nice, and are you going to get your carpenter to make you so more shelves for this ever expanding collection?

OOhh that's nice mate.
Reassuringly expensive looking.

What? You don't like Nick's Tables?
|
||||||||
| Les |
Even his tables are full up now.
|
||||||||
| johnreid |
Nick can just buy more tables, old card tables are usually cheap at yard sales and junk shops. | ||||||||
| kusuchi |
We do seem to be running out of room. And I still have several engines on a 'must have' list. Although the Lilliput won't take up much room.
My wife bought these for the kids to eat in front of the TV. Would they work? 
|
||||||||
| Les |
Very nice picures.....again.
At the rate you are going, not for long.
|
||||||||
| kusuchi |
Tell her buy bigger tables then?
|
||||||||
| Les |
Not bigger, just more.
|
||||||||
| Nick |
I have those same tv trays, but they're not the best for this. They would probably tip over if you were running an engine. | ||||||||
| Nick |
Tables are now empty and the engines are all over the house wherever there is room.
|
||||||||
| kusuchi |
You'll have to post some new pics. I'm stuck with the mental image of the card tables.
|
||||||||
| kusuchi |
I don't know, Nick. But I know they also make them in Burgundy. Still need pics to unglue mental image.
|
||||||||
| johnreid |
I didnt think Nick could run engines without the freezer. | ||||||||
| Nick |
Did you notice the Wilesco wasn't on the freezer?
|
||||||||
| Les |
Where was it then?
|
||||||||
| johnreid |
It was on a box, a first I think
I guess the big engine might thaw out the TV dinners
|
||||||||
| Nick |
It was on a milk crate because I ran it outside in the garage. I have run 2 of them outside and made videos:

I guess it is getting warmer over there.
|

| Nick |
Snow is melting and it's been raining the last couple of days. Soon my videos will take place out in the hot summer, and hopefully they will soon get sound.
