Traction Engine

[bbowser]

Many years ago I had a Matchbox traction engine that was one of my favorite toys.  When I found this kit on ebay I knew I had to build it.  Very simple, basic kit with few parts.  I enjoyed building it and now have a recreation from my childhood.  Thanks for looking!

Is that the 1/72 kit from the UK? I like Traction engines too.....I have the 1/16 kit by Entex I hope to build someday. 

Nice work!!!

That's pretty cool.  Nice job.

It's 1/72, pretty small.  I had the 1/16 kit at one time but sold it off as I wouldn't have anywhere to display it.
