    I don't know if you've seen it, but they do have a website:

    http://www.sandringham-loco.com/

    It doesn't contain a lot of information about how things are going though.

    Hope this helps

    I heard on Saturday that they have enough money for the frames... not sure how true that is though? and that they now have drawings of B17s at the NRM

    Last I heard they built the cab but then I think it got damaged. And that they managed to secure a tender frame. Which is being built first the non working one or the working one.

    Well if my project included both a static and a working model, I sure wouldn't build the real thing first, if I could find out at least some of the unknown pitfalls on the dummy.

    However, at least if you built the 'real one' first then if you ran out of money on the 'static' then it wouldn't matter as much??
