To make a static model with that level of detail would be an impressive achievement. To make a working steam loco with that much working detail is simply phenomenal. You deserve all the plaudits coming your way
-
This is one of, if not the best miniature locomotive I've seen! An absolutely superb engineering masterpiece, even sounds like the full size loco
-
That's an insane level of detail, absolutely stunning.
-
Brilliant stuff. Not just the model - that's a total work of art - but the shooting, editing and narrating. That's the way to do it. Thank you.
-
Absolutely incredible !!! What marvellous workmanship and attention to detail. Thank you for bringing the Duke back to life.

Fabulous! Anyone who models Caprotti valve gear deserves a medal!
-
The most remarkable thing that I've ever seen, lost for words! 👏👏👏
-
There are simply insufficient superlatives to even begin to praise this locomotive and all who worked on it. Fantastic!
-
I can’t imagine how excited I’d be for the first fire after four years of work! Congratulations, team 😌
-
Absolutely outstanding. As a machinist myself of 30 years, this locomotive is brilliant.
-
A quality of workmanship defying description. Truly a thing of beauty. Congratulations!
-
Incredible in all that detail! A masterpiece of locomotive modelling!
-
As a mediocre machinist, I can't possibly imagine the amount of work you guys put in that!
-
A credit to all concerned - what a comission! I imagine its owner would be delighted. It's gratifying to see that craftsmanship is still alive and well in England in the 21st century.

Absolute masterpiece. A gem of details throughout which must've taken so many rare skills. I can do the basics in a machine shop and knock out simple engines but so much more has gone into this, parts I wouldn't know where to begin with.
-
That is just the most beautiful example of miniature engineering I've ever seen. The attention to detail is exemplary. You should all be extremely proud of what you've achieved. Thank you.

The Genius of John Holroyd - this is incredible. I watched some of the work that John was doing on it early on - but now it's great to see it completed running on Steam Well done Steam Workshop - !

A beautiful Locomotive, outstanding workmanship, attention to detail is mind-blowing!

An amazing journey job... A huge engineering effort... Not simply in model terms but in a functioning piece of machinery.

An absolute credit to the builders of this magnificent machine.
