01 - MR - Mamod/MSS Railway
30th January 2007

This is a collection of pictures on the theme of the original Mamod Steam Railways system and the MSS Railway which continued production of the earlier Mamods plus some new ideas. All of the MSS stock being built around the original Mamod loading gauge with a hook & wire loop along with two buffers for the coupling system on their locos, coaches and wagons. Also included are pictures of my own RVLR Workshops hand made stock built with complimentary coupling systems and to the same loading gauge.
