Splitting off from one of my posts on the Leader topic, a quick question.

What is the most unusual model that you have built? Can be steam, diesel, gas-turbine, anything. Can be scratch-built, or kit. Anything goes.

One rule though folks: No flaming others for their models or choices.

Thanks, and lets see what you have.

Interesting choice to start. GWR pacific, very nice.

Any more?

I'm currently working on a model based on the Reid-MacLeod condensing-turbine from North British Locomtives. Photos to be posted soon.

Some extremely interesting models being shown and discussed.

Tom - I think the train guard on the action shot is about 5ft 6in tall. So working from that the loco is only about 8ft high! One of the originals was in South Kensington for years with a trailer - not there now since the big clear out at the Science Museum.

This should be a link to a picture of my Reid-Macleod as it was before I did a minor rebuild on it.

Hope this shows up. If not, fire off an e-mail to me and I'll send you a copy.
