A number of people around the world have made live steam locomotives, and whilst doing so have taken the time to document their work and make a step-by-step photo diary and description of what they did and how they did it, and publish it on the web. We should all thank these people collectively, as they have provided a very good library of information for the rest of us. They have done an excellent job of documenting their work.
Below are some links to the various pages produced by these people, and they show how to make this widget or that widget etc. There is some excellent stuff here if you take the time to peruse.
