Err!
Gauge 1------ called Project 1?
I also have a a 1930's course in memory training called Pelmanism. Can't remember where I put it. Seriously, there is a Gauge 1 Society still in existence. More seriously, I think that there is one called 'Bat' and Curly Lawrence writing as LBSC designed several Gauge 1 locos. They were in Model Engineer.
Have I helped?
Norm
remember
Bolmas, At no point am I correcting Andrew. I was simply going on memory as I had a number of Gauge 1 things from a relative of - James Watt. Seriously!
'Bat' I now recall was a Curly Lawrence design- and may be simpler than Project. I sort of read up the details in the midst of time- and that was that.
Andrew- you have a good memory!
Cheers both
Norm

- not oscillating?
