Office of Steam Forum for Model & Toy Steam Gas & Hot Air Engines

My wifes camera broke right before we left for the show, so no videos here. I did take some pictures of steam engines at the Henry Ford museum with my phone which i will upload, but it was great meeting up with old forum friends and a few new ones as well! Nick, it was great meeting you and knowing we have some younger blood interested in keeping this hobby going- lots of us old guys involved in this hobby, but not so many young people.
 I loved the show being a first timer, although miss being able to buy and sell much with no auction or consignment sale. I did manage to meet up with Nick Rowland and purchase 3 of his wonderful engine ignition units, by far the best on the market (IMHO) and a reasonable price, which is why they have to be ordered in advance. My newly built Domestic vertical engine ran perfectly throughout the show, so i was very pleased. If something is going to break, it will always do it at a show in front of a large crowd of onlookers!
