Occurs, I never updated my progress on the tinplate train. Or why I called it Slieve Glah. So here are the last pictures I took of it.

Full assembly of the parts I had made.

And after attaching the cab/splashers/firebox assembly to the footplate. Firebox extends forwards to hide the motor when assembled. 'Rivets' on smokebox and cylinder cover made by using a punch on the other side of the sheet, in roughly the right places. It's not meant to be a perfect replica, more of a 'that sure is a train that looks vaguely similar to the original!

Speaking of the original this is based on a S-class from the Great Northern Railway (Ireland), or GNRI. Specifically the only survivor No.171 Slieve Gullion, now owned by the Railway Preservation Society of Ireland. They use Slieve Gullion as one of their excursion trains on Irish mainline, albeit the engine is undergoing overhaul right now. (Link)

Anyway, the engines of this class were all named after mountains. I looked up 'Slieve G' in honour of the original. Slieve Glah is what came up, and I thought that sounded nice. The mountain is in County Cavan, within a few miles of the GNRI branch to Cavan town, which is another point in favor as far as I'm concerned.
