Welcome aboard! This one is another trip down modeling memory lane and might be fun once its done.
The kit is very simple, almost toy like. There are lots of injection marks, etc. The little electric motor to run the paddles is probably not going to happen.
The point is...this won't be a modeling masterpiece...its mostly just for fun...the rigging is a challenge for sure.

Yes LR, pardon the pun, but... You're screwed!😉
You'll have to motorize yours, even if it's only to show the inner workings of the steam engine's transmission system.
Have you seen that beam going up and down? Fascinating! 👍 🙂
