What bugs me, is that non of these sets are powered. Thery all apear to use the older 3 axle steam wheelset. But at least they get drive rods. And the short wheelset for the tender is nice.

Also, I found it interesting that non of the models shown were built correctly. They all had thier wheel set bricks reversed.

Percy has a 2-axle wheelset, and it was assembled correctly: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=1112414

You are correct, sorry. It’s seems to be the same wheelset base, but with one axel removed. And it placed the corect end forward, edded for the drive rods to look right.

Thanks,

Mat
