Basically yes. I'm a member of Warley MRC the young members are hidden away under the stairs in another room unit they calm down or hit 40. Then if there still members they are introduced to the main club, maybe. ��

Default Do not knock the fellow who takes 40 years !

I have one engine that has, so far,taken me 37 years. In the meantime I have designed and built a 2" scale steam wagon,and a 4 3/4" gauge railway loco, rebuilt and/ or completed about half a dozen other others for myself and done a lot of repairs for friends. This week, for virtually the first time ever, I turned down a request to build a boiler for a fellow. I just want to have fun completing and playing with MY projects. Hopefully I will have my 2" Greenly/ Minnie engine finished before I have owned the cylinder casting ( which was a gift from a friend). What a lot of stories that engine encompasses, ( eg the steel boiler welded by a friend, now long gone, who learned his skills in jail after discovering bank robbery was not his career). Regards David Powell
