Hi Chris

Congrats on the successful completion of another great project!

I had the pleasure of getting a ride in a Stanley Locomobile a number of years ago;  I had done some machine work for the owner and his son gave me a spin around the park at our local (museum comes to life) show we were attending. Wow that was an impressive short trip! Very quiet and amazingly fast! I will never forget that ride.

Very nice Chris.

At this rate you will have more finished model engines in your house than me  8)

Nice thing about a Cape Cod style house, nice back bedroom on the first floor, perfect for a year round model shop!
