A great big CONGRATS, Nick..!!!

They rarely come available.
So far that one has not found me.

It’s a steam engine, not an air engine.






To bad you couldn't hook up a CO2 cartridge into the tender and run a line to the boiler.
But then it would probably fly off the tracks and put a hole in the wall. Never mind!

You think it would make a better “dart” than my Weeden Dart?

I’ve got a ton of wallet capacity now, I’ve spent it all on toys 😂

Geezo Nick .... that is and those are fantastic!

Heck, even I have shelf space for some of those, though likely not wallet capacity for very many of them!?!?

Very, very well done. If you have a chance, could you check the SN on this one ?
Mine is SN 114.

The other variant of the stationary you are missing (but I am sure, not for long) must have a SN smaller or equal to 500. They started to make only gold plated ones after the first batch of 500.

Congratulations on your new engine !!

It’s a steam engine, not an air engine 😉 I’ve ran the others with no damage, was just careful and kept a small flame. It will get fired at least once here 😉

Beautiful Nick , I'd like to see that new one running.

I’ll see what I can do, I believe it would be the only video of that one out there… all of the other models are on YouTube. Being gold plated it would probably be the only time I run it.

don't ruin it then, are you able to hook some kind of air hose to it ?
