A lovely video, a veritable symphony of belts and pulleys! Love the little chain hoist on the back wall, and the lathe.

Superb workmanship!

I had the honor of seeing this workshop several times during the restoration.

The attention to detail of this restoration is inspiring.

Congratulations Brent!

I stop by at least once a week to appreciate this wonderful Marklin Mecca!  Just so exquisite.  Thank you so much for sharing this restoration.

Thanks Danny, Grace and Brad. It was a dream come true for me but it required a full year of my time to realize that dream. Seeing the end product running on steam was always the motivation.
