There is a gentleman who lives in Austin that has built his own live steamer.I believe he is a welder in some sort of manufacturing company.I asked this same question around last April or May.I got an email from him shortly after and he invited me to come see his steamer and if interested in going to steamer guage track.I don`t remember exactly how far it was from Austin,but remember it was`nt a great distance away from here.You probably should check if one is near you first.I`m sure you don`t want to drive a 100 miles or so to test run your steamer.I did`nt take up his offer to hang around the steamers because my wife had a fit after finding out how expensive they were.She does`nt mind HO and in her eyes my HO hobby is expensive enough.I sure don`t own any Big Boys when most of them are over 300.00.Ouch!Be sure to have your credit card ready if you`re serious about this scale.They`re a kick to watch and listen to but that`s as far as I can go.I received an email from him after a post on this site.Hope that helps. Jerry
