No Pauly, it's called a "saddle tank" because of the design - it's not where you ride on the loco! :lol:

After the hike over the bridge from the car park, crow barring the shed door open and climbing up on the loco Pauly was miffed to find that the pikeys had already nicked the copper banding! ;)

Because of the difficulty obtaining Butane in sufficient quantity, Pauly volunteers to fill the tank with methane. :lol:
