Link doesn't work Pauly- probably 'cos it's half- inched from GSC ;)

I'm guessing it's Max- http://www.regner-dampftechnik.de/aktue ... crolok.php

Which I rather like, although I think it might actually be gel fuelled, not meths.

If it is Max then it's certainly not 00gauge as the boiler has a diameter of 45mm.

It's large scale. If the boiler it 45mm in diameter it must be bigger than 00

And it's on Marklin gauge 1 track... it'll be 30mm, 32mm, 45mm adjustable like most Regner outside frame locos.

Silly boy Pete. Go to bed earlier.

Got me thinking now though, wonder how hard something like that would be in 0-16.5

If that is going to only cost around £250 i think it may be a very popular loco! I am interested myself. Maybe i have found something useful to spend my student loan on :D

Yes, at that price it's rather nice. However, I'd prefer to build one of these instead for a lot less:
