Hello folks!
I am planning on building a Vertical boiler steam locomotive in 5" gauge.
I could do with some advice on the engine and boiler im planning on using. I have been looking at the GLR Kennions 4" diameter vertical boiler with a working pressure of 80psi and a Stuart score engine used vertically rather than horizontally.
Will this plan work? And will the boiler be capable of running a locomotive.
Also what sort of transmission should I use.
Below is the rough design I will be copying
Cheers,
Pete
