    Can I point out that it’s an entry for the “Ages of Steam” competition that’s currently running on the LEGO Steampunk Flickr group?

    Still a few weeks to get entries in, and there’s some nice prizes on offer. Come on over and have a looksee…

  5. Isn’t that a Lowell Sphere?

  6. ^ Jonesey identified it as a Bram sphere in the comments. I figured he would know the difference. ;-)
