Hi Guys,
I have joined this group as I have just acquired a Petter A1 2hp engine. I have been building steam and electric locomotives for some years now and want to use this engine for a new loco I am planning. I have two choices either through a centrifugal clutch to the wheels or alternatively to drive an alternator to use the power for several electric motors that will drive the wheels. First job is to get this one running.


Cheers

Jules
