chipenter:
Picked up the drawings and the book for Simplex at a boot fair Sunday for £4.00 , just in case I get the urge to build one .

Well after many trials and tribulations I'm finally at the position where I can give her the steam test, the boiler past the 1 1/2 times working pressure test a few weeks ago and now she's ready for the steam test this week end so keep your fingers crossed for me Chaps.
Here's a few photo of her all together I'm not too happy with the paint finish and there is a bit more work on the cosmetics required but she is ready for a bit of coal and a match.

Hi Stew,
I thought you must have emigrated but I see you have been really very busy. The loco is looking
really great now, :thumbup: just like it should have done when you bought it.
Cheers Dek. :med:

It looks very fine to me, and I'm wondering if you had a chance to do the steam test? That must be exciting after all of the time and work you've put into this. :bow: :bow:
