(...) But the Thatcher Perkins is, like, more than twice as large as today's trains. And it still doesn't implement the correct kind of pushrod/cylinder movement.

What's all the fuss about? They don't look great to me. They look like those kiddy rides you find in theme parks to me. A steam train should have cilinders, pushrods etcetera. These are on bogey's from a Diesel. Also, they lack detail; half the (...) (23 years ago, 23-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.lego.direct)
