About 5 years ago Patrick Adams of the British Toy Soldier Company built a Nile Paddle Steamer, I believe he made 3 boats but I am not 100% sure of that, I had one, Clive Gande had another one.
Here is my Paddle Steamer “KHARTOUM” with a complement of Royal Marines and Naval Brigade enroute to Omdurman
After the defeat of the Khalifa at Omdurman the “Khartoum” returns to peaceful use. Here the Egyptian crew prepare the paddle steamer for a party of Thomas Cook travellers to enjoy a cruise up the Nile.
Military figures and equipment - Trophy of Wales
Civilian figures - Trophy and Dorset
Egyptian crew - Dorset
Cheers
