Sheffield Velocipede - 3
4: A velocipede setting off the tracks waiting for a trackman
to use it.
This is a non-working model, so I did not attempt to make it func-
tional in any way, including making the wheels turn on the axles.
I really enjoyed making this interesting detail model.
Velocipedes were light enough to allow one man to clear
the track by lifting one end and walking back with the whole
shebang.
The kit does not have any decals, but a very small one in black
reading SAFETY FIRST might be nice.
