Hi Tony!

Long time No see!

I guess I should check out the model boats/ new members section more often!  Must be nearly 15 years since I was in South wales!  Would I be right in thinking that the Mamod locos have had the M.G.M. treatment?

In any case, Welcome to the forum!

Hi,
No they don't use any of Mike Moores products but the green Mamod has a copy of a boiler he used to sell. The cylinders etc are my copies of Deryk Goodall's improvements. I know both Deryk and Mike very well Deryk still lives in Tiabach I think the last I heard of Mike that he was in London. I haven't seen either for many years.
Regards Tony.

I visited Mike a couple of times in London, still have his address from there. Rumour has it that he moved back up to Yorkshire.
