I do have one steam powered model. It isn't the midwest version but a Thames steam launch about 48" long. I bought it years ago from Modeen Marine Steam Models in Oldham Lancs U.K. It is a twin engine that runs on alcohol. It has forward and reverse. The kit was sold as the Lady Ann. I don't remember what I paid for it but do remember as kits go I was/am very happy with it. This is one kit that did come complete. The only extra item I added was a life ring. If I have a chance later today I could post a few pictures if anyone wants to see them?
