Thread: complete beginner
30/11/2009 17:05:53
Hi all,
 
Found this site through a bit of a search on google, and recall the magazine something my grandfather used to buy
 
anyway, the family still has his 2 steam trains that he built 20yrs ago before he past, and the track still in the garden (although in desperate need of some tlc)
 
I've been inspired to get the trains working again back to their former glory and the family would love to see them move under their own power again
 
being a complete novice to say the least when it comes to steam power, is there any advice to help? I'm fairly apt when it comes to mechanics, I just need a starting point!
 
thank you for reading
Phill
