For my birthday/Christmas present from my Son last year, I received a Stuart Models 10 V Stationary Steam engine Kit. Although I knew it was coming they didn’t get to visit us until yesterday so I have only just got my hands on it.

Saying it’s a kit is stretching it a bit in terms of the kits that I am used to in 7mm modelling but I don’t know how else to describe it.

Here is what you get in the box

Steel Castings

Brass Castings

Bar Stock

Last but not least the hardware and sundries in the form of nuts and bolts, gaskets etc.
