A roaring fire and a full head of steam, the old traction engine is ready for work.

Recreate classic scenes from a bygone age with this detailed Lego model. The farmers are working in the field&nbsp;with their traction engine, affectionately known as &quot;The Old Workhorse.&quot;

The set includes a highly detailed, mini fig scale model of a steam powered traction engine, as well as a wagon, minifigures and several accessories and mini builds that can be carried in the wagon. In total 480 pieces are included.

Key features include...

TRACTION ENGINE

<ul>
	<li>Highly detailed and authentic model in classic green and red livery with polished brasswork.</li>
	<li>A system of cogs ensures that the flywheel spins as the traction engine is pushed along.</li>
	<li>Detailed cab interior complete with steering wheel and controls. The&nbsp;firebox door can be opened and closed to reveal the roaring fire inside (see pics).</li>
	<li>The front wheel axle can be turned left and right.</li>
</ul>

WAGON

<ul>
	<li>The wagon can be connected and towed behind the traction engine.</li>
	<li>Plenty of space inside to carry the logs, bushes and rocks.</li>
	<li>The sides of the wagon can be opened up to provide easy access.</li>
	<li>Space at the front to hold&nbsp;tools and mini fig accessories.</li>
</ul>

OTHER ACCESSORIES

<ul>
	<li>2 minifigures are included along with a dog and a rat.</li>
	<li>Brick built logs, tree stumps and rocks.</li>
	<li>3 bushes/shrubs that can be carried inside the wagon.</li>
</ul>

I believe this would make a great official Lego set as it has plenty of play features and would also make a beautiful display model for both children and adult collectors alike. It would also make a great additon to any minifig scale city or layout display.

Thank you&nbsp;very much for reading and if you like what you see, please help &quot;The Old Workhorse&quot; to gather steam by supporting this project.

Many thanks
