Thank you everyone for the great info.

Will have a look at the ME (82 to 83) when at club next week.

Looking forward to getting it running if boiler checks allow.

Will update when any news.

Ok thank you. Was describing Traction engine by what I have been told by others on a fb group.

Going to get help from members at my local Model Engineering club as would like to know what's missing.

Hello

Although I was a field service engineer for 25 years before completely changing career 11 years ago. I never found the time or space to get into model engineering, but at 54 better late than never.

So far over the last 2 years I have purchased a 2" 1963 Fowler plough to restore but still looking for drawings to get started,

Plus managed to get a 5" SweetPea loco that needed a lot of work to get track worthy. Nearly finished.

and a 196x Myford ML7 lathe.

My ambition is to build something like a 5" Maid of Kent but doing research first for suppliers to get drawings and castings etc.

Hello

Can anyone help me where I could get a set of drawings for a 2" Fowler plough built in 1963.

Thank you
