That first little loco has a fair amount of grunt, hauling all those tinplate cars around the circuit with ease.

Love the live steam boxcab, and Finley is mighty fine as well.

A very satisfying little visit to the CMES I'd say!

Hi,

A bit off-topic, but do you use the now decommisioned Windows Moviemaker for editing?  Ask because i did, and started to suffer from some high pitched creaking sounds, distorting the original sound...which i experience in your movies as well.  Might just be my computers, but doubt it since i use 3 different ones here.  (I´ve since switched to the free "Videopad Video Editor from NCH, which is somewhat similar to Moviemaker as far as "ease of use" goes, and doesn´t have that unfortunate effect on the soundtrack).

Sorry to bother you is this the one you suggest?

Take care.

Tony.

Yes I do use Moviemaker but have poor hearing so I haven't noticed any sound problems so I asked my wife to check and she can hear it.  I am not very good with computers so tend to stick with what I know but I will try your suggestion and let you know how I get on.

Take care.

Tony.
