Folks,
Had a dream last night: Grandchildren, great nephew and niece, and neighborhood kids, two to twelve years old, were playing on a beautiful, safe old fashioned steam engine train that I had built in our yard. It had levers, a steering wheel, and bells and whistles (literally) on it. And a caboose. In my dreams, the kids were visiting more often because of it.
Any suggestions? I figgured I could use a wooden barrel for the engine, and could turn a pretty smokestack with maybe flowers growin out of it. (that was also in my dream)
These days I dream about alot of stuff I can’t really do anymore, but if I put my mind to it, I can do this.
Thanks,
Lib (strange but harmless)

I have not built this particular plan, but when I use to do craft shows and I used toy plans from this company cherrytree toys. Take a look.

Thanks so much. Owe you one. As a former farmer I might do the tractor instead. Less fun for the kids, but more fun for me.
