Officially tricked out #75 power plant!
« on: February 10, 2024, 03:00:42 pm »
Shoutout to txlabman for generously giving me a pressure gauge made by Saint Paul steam, and a cool chuffer pot to add onto my power plant.  This thing is officially tricked out!

That is one tricked out Travis steam engine. I can only imagine the eye candy of steam engines you were privy to viewing at Charlies house. Nice to see the banjo pressure gauge on the boiler.

Travis and I had a nice visit yesterday. 

I think he was a bit overwhelmed with the collection.  ???

Your Steam Plant is looking good Travis!
