if i had someway of getting my engine to next years rally, id be there too!!

[@johngillon6969]

i have those two. much prefer Wileso. i think it is better quality, and much more powerful.

[@benforster6254]

Looks mint. How have you done the smoke box door or did it come like that

[@TinkerInTheShop]

I cut a hole in the original pressed steel smokebox part, then make a hinge, door and dart/handle. Yet it opens!

[@benforster6254]

@@TinkerInTheShop wow that’s impressive. Too scared to try myself as I feel I might break something 😂

[@TinkerInTheShop]

@@benforster6254 At some point I want to remake the smoke box entirely, as well as a few other mods. At the time I didn't have many tools but now I have a well equipped workshop, just no time...! 🤣

Wich rally am I missing

[@ClaudiaNiebuer-db1ig]

can you make a fight? sorry for that comment. im a german kid in year 11 and my english is not very well. put a rope between the two steam engines and firering up. as you can see, what enegine is stronger. i want to see that because i have only the wilesco steamtraktor.

[@TinkerInTheShop]

I haven't tried that, but I do know that the Wilesco is a stronger engine even for it's small size. In most ways the Wilesco is a better engine.
