Steam trains in your garden

[minimans]

Just got my copy of Steam trains in your garden by Brian Wilson, it's a good one!! Sorry but I forget who told me about this book here at the forum, but if your wanting to build a small steamer or just wan't a better understanding of how your steamie works this book is for you. I ordered mine from AME in Oz (postage cost as much as the book!)

With regards to the link, it refers to the loco being cheap to build. Do you have an idea of how much the finishing product will cost when building it from this book?

We have a member in our club who was capable of maching all his own bits, turner and fitter/toolmaker and he estimated his at about Au$50.
