The video is now in the 'Videos' section. Well, it seemed like the right place to put it. 
Here's some photos of the three mobiles I have with me at the moment (I have some stationarys, tucked away at my folks place).
My TE1A, which I've had for approx 15-20 years, and is next in line for a full strip and rebuild.
As of yesterday
As bought, all those years ago.
My SR1A, an eBay purchase, and an unfinished project.
Yesterday
3 years ago. Modelling my handmade bunker.
The new TE1A which I steamed, for the first time, today.
Cheers, Nick

Welcome to the forums. I'm sure you'll find some here to interest you. But be warned that collecting toy steam engines is very addictive.
I must say I'm a little bit concerned about your choice of domain hosting your steam engine pictures.   |

If you mean www.tamponalert.org.uk , that's because I maintain the site on behalf of my folks, who run the campaign. Alice was my sister.
Feeling embarrassed?
Don't be. You weren't to know.
And it's not as if I gave you any clues, after all.
Cheers, Nick

So, Deltics, ORRP, Mamods, are you sure you are not my twin?
And yes half the reason my Range Rover is not fixed yet is because of messing around with steam engines, so say goodbye to having any spare time !!!
Welcome on board,
Titan, Aka Andrex!

It's a small world (but I wouldn't want to paint it!)
The V8 tag comes from the engine transplant for my Series 2A Landy, which I still have not got arround to! And my V8 SD1s (I've had a couple).
Cheers, Nick
