Now that is impressive.
I remember making a steering wheel from wood etc when I was youthful because I could not afford a plastic one. It worked and had bicycle tyre inner tubes to act as massive centreing springs on the wheel .
Well done.

There was someone on the RM Web forums who was running their model railway using a Class 47 throttle control unit. Be an interesting challenge to set one of those up to work with Railworks.
