   Hi all,

Shortly after I made my Mallard Teunis Davey contacted me asking if I wanted to have a go at making a NSW Class 38. I did and this is what came out. The train is based on a modified version of the wheelset I used for the Mallard with only cosmetic changes. Lots of thanks to Teuis for ideas and suggestions along the way.

Please let me know what you think and any improvements I could make. MPD available on request.

Now that’s interesting. Your boiler design is similar to what I did for a GW pannier tank engine, “Duck”. I’d love to compare how you did you snotting attachments.

I’m still working on them, but I’m building some engines for a Thomas the Tank Engine display at LEGOLAND CA. The images are a work in progress, but you get the idea. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=170849 I’m trying to build these closer to the prototype then the videos, but they’re a mix. Check the link to see waht I mean. http://www.pegnsean.net/~railwayseries/engines.htm

Basically this arrangement:

Good luck with it. From what I’ve heard of people who run layouts Thomas is always a big hit.

Hey guys-

Just a quick weigh on this boiler design-- here is my Percy:



Sorry, don’t remember how I actually built it; I don’t even display it anymore since the Duplo Thomas sets were introduced.

Well, back to scrambling to get ready for our upcoming show this weekend:-)
