Hi,
 Do like the pairing you posted here in this thread. I will look to get a pic to post. Imagine the one with  brass fly wheels you repainted, but smaller.

I was right; it does run as good as it looks.

Len, I might have seen one and not known what it was called. I am not familiar with a Little Brother upright.

Hi all,
 Gil nice. Have you ever seen one of Herb's little brothers' uprights?

Very nice ... but it must have been a little hectic getting started.

The Little Brother engine appears to be the one that Jin is currently offering, or a fairly close copy anyway.

Great Show Gil  8)

Can't be too easy to get them both running on film at the same time

Dandy little engine, Gil. I'll bet it runs as good as it looks.

Here is my Little Brother built by who knows? 

and....

A few years back I was fortunate to acquire a smaller

Little Brother.... a free lance build scaled down from the regular sized model by George Britnell.

I call it the Little Little Brother!

Enjoy,

Gil
