Serial # 01 - 97

This is the one that I made the smaller base board for a few weeks ago, finally got around to running it.

You've got that one tarted up to perfection Jim .......  and I still especially like the smaller footprint of the base, so that it doesn't take up quite so much self space.  Well done that !!!

Really like the smaller base as well Daniel. The others were so big, that I naturally stored other engine bits and bobs on them so when I wanted to run them, I wouldn't because I had to move so much.
