Just started one of them. Up to the horns and the hind wheels. Gears next and some square holes to cut. Great looking engine thanks for posting the video

When he throttles up it sounds like a diesel engine? O.o I know it's steam but it realy does sound like a chugging diesel when he passes behind that house trailer. XD

I've made an adjustment to the title accordingly. You don't get these cute toys much in the US, so I feel back on simple terminology. You'd think I'd have learned better from my father who's a steam fanatic, but I don't think even he has seen one of these. So, sorry for my ignorance. :-)

These aren't "Toys". They are precision engineered scale vehicles.

nice video, but its a miniature traction engine, a steam car is literally a car with a steam engine - a very different beast indeed!
