I remember that the momentum cars were a group effort between Bob Paule,
Kevin O'Connor and Larry Bangham. Bob Paule did all the machining of the
parts, I don't remember who did the rest. 3 cars were built. The original

A while back someone was asking about a Roundhouse loco that could have been

Actually I think it was more like "Ernie can run his own division PLUS the
other division". Since Ernie works for a publishing house, a lot of Small

Hi All
Keith Bucklitch has a drawing of a dead leg lubricator in his "Brazil"
plans. He starts with a .5mm (.020") hole and recommends opening the hole
up in steps until a maximum of 1mm (.040") Interesting that the outlet pipe
rises up to the connection with the steam tee.
http://www.fls.o
lanning a large
steamup would show the same consideration.
