It's probably got flux capacitors as well.

I refer the Honorable Gentleman to the construction in this thread using processed wood products:
1/32 - LMS 4-4-0 class 2P
A couple of years ago I purchased a set of Mark woods wheels for the G1RMA "Dee" project for Live steam. Since then I changed my mind (who ever does that) and the wheels which are so nice needed a project. and also I decided that I would rather it be a P2. I know the wheel sizes are all a bit...

Thanks Bill,
I did reflect on @michael mott ’s thread, but I was having a clear up, and throwing the MDF Manor chassis away, (see my workbench for its replacement) and I wanted to mark its passing, and frankly, it was simply too good an opportunity (and too bad a pun) to miss.
I did seriously consider putting a motor & pick-ups in the MDF chassis, and I’m sure it would have been entirely fine, at least for a while. What I didn’t fancy doing was laser-cutting a bogie to suit! (Or indeed full working Stephenson’s motion made from something improbable!)
all the best, Merry Christmas!
