I was asked to put together a kit for a Linke-Hofmann Bt, which is a small fireless loco. I am part way through the CAD work on it and thought I would share the progress so far. It is only 7.5" long and 6" high



Ignore the odd square on the bottom of the loco in this picture, it has since been removed

Fireless locos are a totally new concept to me, how interesting! I guess they make sense in many industrial scenarios.

Model looks great

I have seen one or two about. The Sittingbourne and Kemsley Light Railway I believe has one in their yard somewhere, much bigger than this one though, called "Unique" which is a 2-4-0

Well, it's actually finished, a few extra bits in the cab add and a few things corrected, jobs a good un.
