Congratulations on an excellent build.

How long did you work on the project?

Are you going to steam it?

I would love to see a video of it running on steam or air.

This is the Build of the Year IMHO.

Well done!

Charlie

I built the engine in 600 hours. I will only run this on air. I do not have the means to make a video.

600 hours...that's a commitment!

Thank you,
Charlie

Wow, I am truly impressed. If you lived close by I would be more than happy to video that fine machine for you, I would consider it a privilege.

If you go on the Estevan Model Engine Show page there is a short clip of Clif and the engine. I will see later if I can find any video from Kelly or someone else at the show…
