I didn't know how the levers work and the train was modelled from photos found
on the web so I was pretty sure it wasn't very accurate as most of the images
didn't show the wheels/levers in enough detail to model and I had no idea how
they should move.

When I modelled the train I had lots of scenes in my head that I was planning to
use it in but never got the carriages finished (I ran out of steam :~o ).

I would be glad to see any part of it in another picture so you are free to use
it (if you can make anything from my poorly written/commented code).
