Hi Jeff and Ken,
         Thanks for the info and to Ken for sending the ad from Popular 
Mechanics.

         Sometimes I can be very stupid !!!! I've been busy all day making 
skids and axles for a few engines and came and sat in the office for a 
break. That mail came in so I quickly the pics on my page and wrote to the 
lists. I should have just walked out to the shed and looked at my Iron 
Horse - they're identical apart from the tag and military colour !!

         Thanks for the replies guys.

         Jeff I'd love a manual as well as some pics of the cage. Mine 
(unrestored) is not the military version but it may be nice to make the 
cage and possibly paint the engine to military colours - time will tell.

         Is the manual in pdf - if so please send it off list to the same 
address I use for the list.

Keep the revs up (or down)
