It does have a drive motor, but don't think I will connect it up, since the engines do need attention while they are running and access is not easy once they are installed.

Hi Skyfire, Good to see an update on this build, but its such a shame that you have an issue with the running of the engines. As a seriously not cheap kit I would have thought that more attention would have been paid to the running gear. I fully understand you`re method of having the props running and saving the engines and I applaud you for keeping the build going. Looking forward to future updates.

Well, I must say that if it all lights up like that, then the finished model will look great. Keep on with the updates, you`ve got my interest. Regards delboy271155 (Derek) COME BACK GUY FAWKES "YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU"

Latest bit of work on the Titanic. Added some decking to the forward boat deck. Not going to add the lifeboats just yet, far to easy for things to get damaged.

Changed my mind on the lifeboats and added the davits in. I will add the boats later on.
