Welcome, Dan!  Thanks for showing at our first annual Global Power-Up.


It is amazing to see that a very large Doll like the 512/3 can be so dwarfed by the tall Carette...!!!

Dan, Dan, Dan...every time I see your collection it just BLOWS MY MIND man. That huge Carette makes my heart race and my pants fit funny. I could spend weeks just looking at one shelf.

A great restoration Dan.

I get so excited when one of my engines runs for the first time.

I always enjoy viewing your great collection.

Thank you for participating in GPU 2020. 🤠

OK, so now I've seen a glimpse of heaven... steam heaven.

I've got what I consider to be a big Carette 677 (the 5 variant) but your 7 variant would tower of  it.  So glad you rescued it. 

687/5 is a gem, the 143/3 too.

Thanks Dan!
