What next? Steam waggon
« on: February 21, 2011, 11:13:30 AM »
I have just about finished my latest project (steam launch can be viewed on this site, just waiting for warmer weather to give it a go).
What next? I have been looking at road steam waggons as a possible next move. Could anybody give advice and possible sources for castings and plans?
