Now, all it needs is a miniature version of a Class 55 Deltic locomotive to fit it in.

I am more impressed by this because it isn't just operated by air on a plank of wood, it runs...like.....on petrol lol, not that building a scale model of a V12 is not impressive in itself..

For anyone interested in a model V12 that runs on fuel rather than air, see below. even the sound of it makes you drool!

Model V12 engine

What a masterpiece.

No duff. Whoever thought the deltic up was on spooky drugs.

I thought the machining of the crankshaft was amazing, some kinda magic going on there

You should see a full size perkins 4016 V16 being made! Now that is impressive

Lovely vid, reminds me of that french bloke who made a perfect replica ferrari some years back, featured on a Clarkson show if I remember correctly.

That is awesome.

That reminds me, my grandad made from scratch a steam engine that you could ride along on.
