It appears the king of US plastic locomotives has finally made good on his
promise of building a live steamer!  For those of you attending the show in
Denver - PLEASE take photos and let us know how it looks!

piston valves, plastic boiler shell (yes you read that correctly!) sound
system including steam chuff?!? Butane fired with radio controlled ignition.
Sounds interesting!?!?!  Check it out here:
