Hello and greetings.
Looking after my two grand children, I decided to amuse them by steaming a TE1a I had had for years. They were not too amused but I was thrilled.
I went to retrieve my collection, which had not been steamed for 12/15 years.
I have never been a fanatic, but I have several Mamods, an SEL Junior, a Stuart 10H, a number of scratchbuilt oscillators and  a boiler!
All of these I intend to steam during the remainder of  school holidays to see if the boys will 'bite'.
I found this site by accident, and I am sure I will have many questions to which you experts will find trivial.
I will post some pictures as soon as I can.
In the meantime, nice to make your acquaintance and best wishes
Alan H
