Thanks for the positive comments folk, I think that showing and sharing is one of the better sides to this interesting hobby.

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

Jason

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.
