I noticed that, but there isn't a reference to it, or that i've noticed anyway!

I love the tram. Has a strong resemblance to the Snowdon Mountain Railway locomotives

The locos refered to were subject of articles in past editions of Sixteen Millimeters Today (16mm ngm magazine) I cannot remember which editions i will try to findout

I have the mamoth articles copied for a future project (can send via snail mail)

The tram snowden type loco by Mr Walker (I appologise to him for not knowing the correct name) is also a mamod ...the clue is that the cylinders are under the footplate and ones above are dummies)

Now THATS mamodfications for you!!! superb work

Like the looks of the indirect drive, something to look into as a idea for a project.

Hello, I am new here, but not new to some of you (hey, Pauly) who are also on
the Mamodforums.
