I wonder how much some of these cost? I want one! But in all seriousness the hill climb was so gut wrenching, I thought that one roller was about to fall apart! Lol!
Hi I'm glad you enjoyed the hill climbing part it definitely makes any engine work hard and always sounds great. The price really depends on what you are going for for example one like on the thumbnail is about £15-20k but the full size roller about £60-80k. A company called Steam Traction World sells miniature traction engines and rollers as a kit definitely worth a look. www.steamtractionworld.com/#
Thanks! Also I am happy to say that my mamod te1 has been fully restored! Well, to operating condition that is! And I've actually named it Kotrom, which stands for King Of The Roads Of Maxford, but I just call him Trevor
@@urijah9810 that's brilliant you can't beat a Mamod that's where I started collecting and fixing them up. If you have not see my Mamod collection already you might me interested in this video. This shows my whole collection of steam toys. ua-cam.com/video/kqfypQeuhmM/v-deo.html
@@stratocaster1greg sounds like a good project you have. It's nice to see something different rather than the same engines all the time. I'm currently overhauling a 5 inch gauge coal fired locomotive.
