Building the steam loco from the Special Edition set this term, there are some great models in this set.  I really like the nuclear sub but my student likes the loco and after all it is his project.    I will post up some pics when I get them off the camera, probably tonight as I am at school at the moment.

It looks awesome though.

It's a nice model Paul. My dad got that one, but I can't recall the green light on the front.

Might be a earlier version. His needed some persuasion and modding to make things fit, but worked out ok in the end.

I'll have to search for the nuclear sub model. Sounds interesting
