It is a nice engine, I see it has the servo arm too. I'm amazed that these were around when I was starting with mamods at the same time.
My engine is the maestro 060 rc version

Hello everyone
Almost 2 years ago I bought a used Merlin Beck Maestro at a live Steam meeting. The left side (control parts) had been repaired very improperly and had been supplemented with many self-made screws. Was able to use some parts from a used Maestro with a 32mm gauge and it runs quite well again.
From minute 1:22 in this video you can see the result of my renovation.
Greetings from Austria

Nice video that Gerald. Love the steamers that give us some enjoyable watch, and yours did. Thanks for posting it.

Hello,
a US version of a 0-4-0 Merlin locomotive is currently being offered on eBay America. Was this a standard Merlin product for the American market, or was it a modified version, presumably a Mayflower, with a cowcatcher, diamond smoke stack, turbogenerator, and other parts? I'm just curious.
