[Long funnel & tiresome]

Googling about for something else I happened upon this:

Some cracking little models on show. Are they all scratch built?

Dont know the answer to your question. But yeah from those pics they look fantastic.

I would say that they are small production runs.

Scale is 1:22.5

Except he just used one loco he had built to do the job back in the 1920's to the confoundment of those who thought they knew better.

Some very nice looking loks there - are there any more pictures or links please ?

With regard to 'what are they' I came across this website which might be the answer http://www.reppingen.de/index.html

I think I can solve the problem, as I was at the Karlsruhe event in 2011 and again in 2012, where the Czechs were out in force again. A lot of the pics are of Regner locomotives, though not all, and if you look through the initial weblink pics, you´ll find one of Mr Regner himself, smiling benignly at his own work. Herr Regner is - together with Ralph Reppingen - one of the leading lights of the German-speaking live steam scene producing two or three new locomotive models each year, each available in kit form.
