Harry the rocket

Post by pauly » Wed Jul 15, 2009 4:06 pm

now before you say anything it is a live steam loco, its also 1 of mamod biggest mistakes!

a few years back they released images of their new loco called Harry the rocket and said that if they sold more than a 100 of the first batch they would put them into continues production, they sold less than 50 !

it looked horrid and it was very expensive so they are now very rare and collectable and 1 day will be worth a lot of money on the mamod collectors market (Im a collector)

I still dont understand what mamod thought they where doing when they came up with this mess, they where probably desperate!

Aren't railway engines supposed to have flanges?
