It means no ride on engines or the big stuff basically, and obviously they have to be working steam models...

A MM said.
A model is ok as is scratch built but not full size or one that is big enough to haul a person.

Things like Mercers or a Roundhouse loco etc are fine but a 7 inch gauge loco is not.

When the time comes for the vote, a poll appears in the General Discussion section.

After it is narrowed down to 5 choices, there will be a thread in the top of the general discussion area that is in the "sticky" section.

That will have the poll and once you have voted you will see the results as they accumulate.

Its at the top of the general discussion board- last months was a great one, with the top 2 engines only 1 vote apart

http://modelsteam.myfreeforum.org/about10340.html

you cant vote on this one now, but maybe someone will send you a PM when james picks out the June entries and dauntless posts the entrys/ voting up.

Sure hope I come out of the flat cap.  It's my 50th this month and EOTM would have been kind of special.

Still, Que Sera ,sera.

Cool engine bigal, how it works is there will be a notice that they are taking submissions each month, at that time if you wish to enter, PM the photo and info to Dauntless. That way it is kind of "Secret" till the poll is opened to vote.

Hmmmmm Wonder which engine Richard entered?
I didnt enter one this month, the competition is too tough.
