Garden Railway Forum

The Garden Railway Forum is a great forum. It's very friendly and I really like to read all your threads. But I made a big mistake. Every time I tried to build something, I failed. All I got is a full box of junk ! :roll: My last thread about my vertical boiler steam loco is a complete disaster. Man...

Why not ?

Of course it was a bit harsh ! But I'm better with a hammer than any other tool.

I really hate what I've done. It's only junk on wheels.
So I kept the driver, this very good HGLW chassis and the buffer beams.
Then I dumped all the junk in the trash bin.
Sorry, but this is the end.
That's all folks !

Hi David,
Thanks for the link. A lot of interesting pics.

Bill, As Mike posted above your Brunel Mark II has, for whatever reason, the cylinder mounted higher than the Mark II chassis that Mike was provided with to upgrade his Mark I. Mamod posted photos of their Mark II with the brass gears and lowered cylinder here - https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...

Thanks for the link. I'm gonna check it asap.

Great wagon. I use the Loctite superglue without any problem. I store it in my garage.

Can I find a Mamod Brunel MkII somewhere? Many online shops don't show this locomotive on their website.

Looks very nice !

Wonderful work.
