Matt Chivers
This is the home of that guy who builds Railway Locomotives, steam powered locomotives, you know the ones that run on rails! Usually small ones you can sit inside or ride behind. Join us on our journey building 7 1/4" gauge live steam locomotives in a modest size home workshop on the Bridgeport Milling Machine and the Warco Lathe!
With over 25 years experience in the Engineering, Welding & Fabrication sectors and a lifetime in and around railways, with a touch of Lancashire humour thrown in, come join this tea drinking Northern Monkey on an adventure of metal butchery!
