After disposing of the annual Christmas tree and cleaning up all the fallen
needles (there were lots of them) the thought occured to me that given the

We are going to hold you to that. I hope to make it to the Sacremento

While looking through the Coles' Power Models catalog I came across a
live steam model of an American La France fire engine. It reportedly will
throw a stream of water fifty feet. Maybe this would have a sufficent amount
of pressure to fill boilers under pressure and also double as a

Any chance of making it to the Midwest Steamup in St. Louis with your traction
engine? (Sorry, the exact date escapes me at the moment.)

Hello Everyone,
I've only recently been hearing about the Bassett Lowke LMS Mogul live
steam engine that is available. It's for O gauge so it really wouldn't
be of use to me other than for the joy of having it. They seem
relatively inexpensive, but having not seen one personally for a close

Thanks for the input on the Bassett Lowke. Hope you don't mind, but I really
want to pick your brain on a few things.
What about the detail work? Is it up to today's quality standards? I'm not

James,
Well, how 'bout that! I actually found a few links to Basett Lowke, but it was
listed as www.bassettlowke.com (one word) and so I got the dreadful, "Unable to find
server" error box.
I went to www.THESIGNALBOX.com a few days ago but didn't find the engine in their
pages anywhere.
The Midwest Steamup date is May 4-6. 2001. Traction engines, steam lorries,
and steam boats are all welcome.
Tom

Ok, I vow to give myself 20 lashes with a wet noodle for not posting with correct
steamy content.
Don't forget, Geoff, there are a few other railroad barons in the area who would
welcome such "esteamed' personages to their humble digs.
