loco weight?
Can someone please tell me what is the typical weight (ready to run with water, gas, rc gear, etc) of 16mm loco.

For example

Re: "Calloway", a Roundhouse Bundaberg Fowler Rebuild
P.S. I don't know how slaveishly Bundaberg boys were following Fowler original, but on my GA (of Airdmillan - as you know last one produced in UK) it does show boiler feed pump, but no injectors...?? https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=worthington+boiler+feed+pump&atb=v278-1&iax=images&...
