[modeleng] Re: Mountaineer / RailMotor No 2

Hello Norman

Some people are born lucky!

By amazing chance, I am presently browsing through some 1974 Model Engineer 
magazines, where Mountaineer is serialised!

The boiler is described in great detail , from 5 April - 30 June - Volume 
140 No 3486 to No 3491.    I could photocopy these, and post them to you, if 
you supply me with your address, email address and phone number.

I am Hubert Elffers, shep.28@xxxxxxxxxxxx, phone 01727 866104, and live in 
St Albans.

I think that I have the entire series, if this interest you, including all 
of Don Young's asides, and visits to the original.

Let me know.

Cheers!   Hubert
