I did not know Peter had handed in his lunch pail and I'm very sorry to hear
it. I have a couple of his engine sets and which I found to be some of the
best and I hope Bob continues that. The only compliant I ever heard was that
the top of his line, the Corliss castings, were undersized and left virtually
no machining allowance in places. I hope Bob corrects that. I've always
wanted a set of the Corliss castings but the cost of post always put them out
of reach. I'll be coming to England this year, maybe a set will stow away in
my carry-on?
