i was, but forgot to ask at meeting. must be somebody in the maine group that run live steam,as they say( the real stuff). my buddy that got me into rr motorcaring, has decided to get out of m/c ing and run "G" scale live steam and is looking for something a little bigger than a RUBY. he is a maine licence steam engineer in boilers at factory. getting ready to retire and looking for less strenuous hobby to past the time by. he wasn't sure about coal, probably butane, but though he would have to go to a steamup and see what the operators had the lease problems with what fuel and engines. nh president is a live steamer and had a steamup in august last year and he didn't go. so he will have to wait until the snow goes. plan on building a layout about waist high so he doesn't have to bend over. not really sure if he wants new or used, sounded like used. i'am almost possitive he probably could rebuild one if it came to that. if you know of someone that has something, ( 2-6-0, 2-8-0 ) give a shout.
(If interested please leave comment, I will send you Tiny's email if you need it)
