Garden Railway Forum

Currently writing my PhD thesis in preparation for my final oral defense in experimental physics. Somehow, I have little sympathy!

J/k. Good luck!

Craigslist is pretty popular in North America. It's a simple classified system, so the usual rules apply. If it seems too good to be true...

I can understand her wanting something that will leave no trace of it having existed if/when you move on.

Wouldn't switching the fuel help only with maintaining the boiler pressure? Seems to me that, for given cylinder dimensions, steam chest design, plumbing design etc (and I fully realise that this particular 'etc' encompasses a lot of design variables!), a given boiler pressure produces a given torqu...

Mallett?



Would seem a bit "complicated" compared to typical RH models also though.

Looks that way. It looks like Mildred is built on the same chassis but, based on the smokebox offset from the front buffer beam, Mildred's boiler appears to be longer.

anyone else have an airport on their model railway?!
