First Run of my B01 Ball Top Monitor Hit & Miss Engine

Really no really taken with how awesome this engine just looks and runs!
I have about a dozen or so Hit & Miss engines (my plan of course was to only ever have one!!!)
But this is absolutely at the top of the pile an instant favourite!!!

Absolutely understandable, how that one would instantly rise to the top of your favorites list!

Runs so nicely Daniel right out of the box and at a realistic speed (compared to some of my other H&M engines) @JinMachine Jin is really doing some great work!

So easy to hand start, I keep stopping it just to enjoy starting it up again by hand!
