Nice engine and good video run. Sounds
and looks like a good runner.
You are sooooo lucky the throttle and
whistle controls are not frozen. Nice
to see them work the way they ought. I
wish there was a way to free them up on mine.
Happy Steaming,
Wayne
Hey Wayne, how you been? Got a chance to use that sight glass I sent you around xmas?
As for the throttles - not to make you more jealous, they operate like butter. My #3 throttles are a bear to work and they are missing their rubber/bakelite insulators. From a operation standpoint, I could image this little #1 running any better when it left the factory!
Here is what it looks like with the "boat" smoke stack - doesn't look bad and the boat doesn't mind (much).
