I can see MooseMan dancing down the street in victory. I am sure that you will make a beautiful product of this 410. The one I have seen run is a stellar little performer. A great find indeed.

I know where you can get some measurements.

I wonder if the lighting the picture was taken in hurt the sale too. It makes the very good paint look dull.


I've got a feeling I might be knocking on your in-box soon Nick

The only bit I find daunting is making the missing wheel, but I'm sure I'll sort it.

Now can the Moose make sense of this mess?

Yes he can, and the above pictures are just part of a very comprehensive set of measurements I got from Nick - thanks mate!

It's here!!!!  

All good - all the important bits (piston, cylinder, flywheel, gears) are there.....piston's seized, but that doesn't bother me.

Happy days!!

I'm glad the gears are there Moose! Was a bit worried since a rear wheel was missing.

My picture where the roof folds over the cab wasn't the best, but now can you see the part of the cab that it folds over?

Get that burner made and fire it up! Train
