Has anyone seen 2.5" Miss Therm's firebox (ME 19/3/31) the firebox is 7" long. How is anybody supposed to fire such a beast?. Ithink a 4.5" or 5" long firebox...
David - Sorry you are bored with this group and I can understand your feelings. C'mon chaps. We have some of the very best 2.5in and Gauge 3 modellers in the...
Don't forget that links can only be put in if someone out there knows one. There is very little on the net for 2 1/2" gauge, even less before David started...
David, I got this e.mail from Yahoo, have you made me owner? If so, I will try to get everything 'shipshape'. At least I have been down the rocky road of ...

I have uploaded a video of Normans Scotsman at the last Chesterfield rally. It is 813kb and is 28 seconds long, not brilliant quality, but something to look...
Simon, Lovely video, thank you. Being new to this type of thing, why is the chinney extended whilst running? Does the fire draw better, or is it just comfort...
