    Wilesco model steam roller D365 "Old Smokey"

    Look what I found in the lobby cupboard!



    Anyone got a build manual for it and any idea where I can get spares from?

    The one in the pic isn't mine, it's a stock foto!

          Saw some last night, will keep an eye out. I'm looking for a roof, roof stays and funnel. A build manual would be nice for reference.

              Where else does he get his spares from? Or is it only eBay?

                        I found a traction engine, just chucked in the skip at our local dump. Just the fire box and steering control arm missing....

                          Never do that again!

                          Someone somewhere would buy it...

                            Here's the one I found in the cupboard (actually Shirley said "There's one of those in the cupboard."). Needs a good clean up, re-paint, new roof and a funnel.

                              No he retrieved it, like a pikey, from the skip
