The beautifull stainless steel flameplate tray in the cab of 3117 looks superb. John Dadford went to great lengths to get this done. No scratch oil bottles or feeders on this one lads!!

Great Pics Nathan. Well done FOTR, and "FOTMorris Minor". They dont make cars (or trains) like that anymore.
Not quite on the rails.
