Dapol (Airfix) Lowmac conversion

Wasn't there a Kato propeller driven rail vehicle? I remember there was a special "presentation" vehicle that was given out by Mr. Kato himself that was unusual, but I'm not certain is was propeller driven.

[Julian Evison]

It was a little rocket-shaped vehicle, though not propeller driven. It was a trial model (along with a few other things) which Kato brought to Warley to see how people responded and was very kindly given to the West Midlands group by Mr. Kato.

Thanks Julian. I knew it was something that went "whoosh"!  ;D

[Stephen Rainsbury]

He did, photo c/o Mick and Adrian! He handbuilt the propeller as well, I believe, took a few goes to get it right!

Now that's dedicated!
