Re: 4, The engine must be a toy steam engine.
A couple months ago someone asked about entering a handbuilt model. I think I recall that person getting the go ahead, even encouragement. I am asking is this a new rule or one that was just not well known before?
I must assume that at least for now we should not enter a hand built scale model.

Also, as many as there are that are enjoying the Steam Accessories, maybe a true Steam Acessory should also be made eligible. Just a thought. _________________ Your life is an occasion...Rise to it |

I am not suggesting the rules be changed. I just noticed they seem a bit different from a couple months ago.

Don't forget there are quite a few other members with accessories as well.  _________________ Les - Old age isn't so bad when you consider the alternatives.

And maybe one with a winner.
I like the idea.  _________________ Richard

I think we should add another rule:
-The engine must be a Wilson.

I will get an answer of the mods for you on that one, but I would think a small scale model is fine. we have had scratch built models in the past.

Thank you.
By the way, an accessory steam toy of the month would be fun.
Perhaps it's possible to add an additional poll without interfering with engine of the month? _________________ Steam on,
