Thanks for the pictures and the videos. I have watched with great pleasure. It is something special to see these old machines running as they did on the first day. With some scuffs, maybe dents and aged material but still fit.

Great to see it running Walter.

You did a very nice job restoring this one to running order.

This is superb!  thanks for sharing.  I really enjoy Bings.  You have a great example too.  Sadly missing is the smell from the steam when these fire up its its own unique experience of oil and smoke steam and old metal. 

Cheers

Love steam engines, especially older German made.  Love the more clockwork style.  Addicted to this stuff!
