Roundhouse Millie Fun on the Deck
« on: February 10, 2024, 03:33:52 pm »
Haven’t ran this one in a few years so figured I’d see if it was ready to bring to a show in a couple weeks… I believe this is the first time Jacob has seen one of my live steam locos running, he enjoyed it!

Yep, all us kids like watching live steam trains running ..... and I really like the "tunnel" too!

Haha the “tunnel” wasn’t planned… the chairs are what keeps him on the deck, they just got in the way of the large oval 😂

I noticed the chair tunnel too. He enjoys everything you fire up, and whenever it stalled out
a little, a couple steps towards it and away she'd go. You could fire up one of those Hornby
Rockets on the deck. I bet he'd like that.
