Unfortunately the boiler is wrong, but the smokebox is correct. Firebox is slanted sides rather than straight vertical, however!

Also, again it looks a little short. Can I ask what drawings you are using, and if they are to proportion, as they appear very 'dodgy'!

I will alter the boiler - I am using plans sent to me by Muztrem from the R&ER loco plans book.

Just to prove I am building to plan (It might be that I havn't applied any detail to the running plate in front of the boiler?)

Look at the smokebox, boiler and firebox in my shot above, no 'step' in either.

In what?

Bonnie Dundee
I have now finished this loco. Does anyone else (apart from William and Murray) want to test it as well as these two?
