Very neat, I like the idea of fitting the steam motor in the rear bogie. I'm building a model of the W&L's Monarch (with lots of help from Tony Bird) with a homemade steam motor housed in the rear power bogie. It has run well on test and is slowly coming together.

I'm impressed Anton. So am I right in thinking this loco has no esc, it's simply powered straight from the generator? Also, on your warship, is the silencer a proprietary item or one you've made? I'm building myself a live diesel so I'm keen to see how you've done it. I was thinking I'd need an ESC ...
