xlchainsaw=glenn loungelizard5947 = elizabeth (lizzie)my wife lizzie owns our large collection of mamods and i get to play with them.(if i behave myself )we are both near 50yrs old and grew up with the birth of the roller and traction engine of the mamod range with many of our friends and relatives lucky enough to have one. both semi retired now we started collecting some time ago.as time passes we are being drawn deeper into the wonderful world of live steam models.we like to find and pass on models to serious enthusiasts in australia as parts and models are hard to come by locally.as most parts and models are easy to get in england we buy from the uk and other parts of the world and wait sometimes up to 6months for delivery.we are just becomeing known locally and are often being approached for parts ect.which we pass on .(australians arent known for their patience )we have over 100 models with most arriving in need of a part or two. thanks glenn
