That little early days loco (it's got some Rocket, some Stourbridge Lion, some
DeWitt Clinton, and others, in it) is not exactly what I really wanted to build
first but I started playing around with how the drivers work together and I just
stuck a few of the 3x3 rounds that we USED to use for drivers on it and voila,
it was bursting to come out. Now that it's captured I am going to use the wheels
for something else.
Note that this is a static model, as I didn't figure out the piston linkages
very well, that part is all fake.
