Hi,
After I saw photos elsewhere of a Princess Of Wales Dolled up, I decided to Doll up my Prince Of Wales given to me along with stock on Friday! This is fitted with a cheapo but reliable meths burner.
The first side...
...the other side...
...and the burner.
Do any of you guys know a good way to make sure the burner in my Mamod is still alight? Thanks. |

Very nice mate!
Are you the guy that bought it off ebay? Or am i mixing my wires up here? Well a good way to make sure its still lit is to put your hand over the loco. If it feels hot its still alight 
You might benefit from getting a wick burner, it would be a lot better!

Ta! No I didn't buy it off eBay, I got given it by a friends Dad complete with stock!
I'm only 14 so I don't currently have the money for a wick burner. But i'm definatley going to be ordering a high pressure saftey valve soon. I'm happy to say that i'm lucky and have a working boiler with no hole in it! |

There was only 250 of those ever made! Its very very rare! The high pressure valves make a lot of difference!

| I guess I did quite well for the price (£0.00)! I thought it was out of a thousand! 250 is even better! |
