        under the age of 18 years when that locomotive is being operated in a
        public place.

   (h)  Boilers of the Hobby Miniature Locomotive type manufactured from steel
        having an internal volume not larger than 50 litres and a maximum
        working pressure not greater than 700 kPa provided that-

   (i)  during the construction of the locomotive the boiler has been
        inspected in the manner described in the AMBSC Code (appropriate to
        the material of construction) by a person registered with the
        Australian Miniature Boiler Safety Committee; and
