IP Engineering "Fury"
Has anyone got any pics or more info on the IP Engineering "Fury"? Here's an article I scanned a number of years ago from an even older magazine of my Dad's. The pics didn't scan too well in B&W :D Page 1 IP Engineering 'Fury' Live Diesel Garden Rail 1997 09 49 to 50-1.png Page 2 IP En...

Sold my last bought loco
Over the years I have sold off my 3 bought locos. This past weekend my last one went to its new home. The last run I gave it was on the rollers in August 2019

Re: Live steam at a bargain price...?
I'd be happy for PayPal not to refund these greedy folks, they need to learn their lesson That rather misses the point of my post, which was that even if a "purchaser" is refunded, as far as I can see money is still given to the scammers, therefore encouraging more scams to be created. I ...

Re: Live steam at a bargain price...?
... the possibility that I'll have to ask PayPal for my money back is pretty high, but what's life without a little risk? Come to think of it, assuming the money is reclaimed from PayPal, does PayPal take the hit/reclaim the loss from an insurance policy? Or to put it another way, does legitimate b...

Re: Gauge 1 ‘project’
The process of turning the eccentrics in case it’s useful to anyone, made up a little spring loaded thing which sits between the tailstock centre and a center pop on the workpiece, dial indicator mounted in the tool holder as I seem to have misplaced my magnetic stand and used to clock in the 4 jaw...

Re: Wild Rose ~ Quarry Hunslet
I'm really looking forward to another run Rod, but the weather is against me :thumbup: If it's not raining it's blowing a gale. In the meantime have I made another cover for the real steam dome. The old one leaked at the thread when using my gentle thread sealant or PTFE tape, it was visible at stea...

Re: Wild Rose ~ Quarry Hunslet
Thank you Rod!
This fuel is lovely and clean burning, no need for tube sweeping, just a puff of air will do

Re: Wild Rose ~ Quarry Hunslet
Here we are lads! Had a great run on the line yesterday. The second run around the whole loop. BBQ briquettes are up to the job. I got two laps eventually on one firing before putting the loco to bed - to run the fire right down. Interesting video, an over full boiler with water coming out of the sa...
