Livvy the tram engine

19th April 2006

A few pics of my (STILL!) under construction tram engine, in 7 1/4" gauge. Hopefully, HOPEFULLY, it will be sort of running this Summer, HOPEFULLY!!

*stop press*

as of the 9th of March Livvy has been withdrawn and put into storage at dads work, as she is hopelessly underpowered and worn out. She will recieve a full overhaul later this year, as soon as Midge is out of the workshop.
