Very nice engine and well presented, too!
-
do those tyres fit on the d409
-
does the steering wheel work or is it just for show
-
My dad's got a Wilesco (a D409 Showman's engine), and we occasionally run it (makes a good photo pairing with my Accucraft Ruby at the grade crossings!) in the garage, although it really could use 2 wheel drive!

This is a great video, shows the running, towing and upgrading of a Mamod, an awesome video, thanks for the upload!

Great video! I love the noises it makes.
Just wondering how hard this was to assemble? I'm thinking of buying one for my Dad who's very mechanically minded (he's a fitter and turner by trade), but not had much to do with models.

@wo2junk They are from a British company named Forest Classics. Just type that into Google and you'll find it easily. They are robust, washable and have good grip, well worth buying to protect the wheels.
