The intricate workmanship and detail on the miniture traction engines is wonderful. I love the fact that someone has laboured over these for months, possibly years, to make them perfect. Here you see some of the steam pipework on "Old Maid".

Isn't this lovely. It reminds me of when my brother and I were young and I would watch him tinker with engines (of all sorts) which had parts very like those shown here. Nostalgia indeed.
