The loco ran very well, and proved to be a good hauler. It's more fun with manual control.

The train did 3 laps of my 56 m loop before stopping it to top up the water.

This is my running season. We're having a bit of a heatwave at the moment. I won't say the temperature as I don't want any Aussies spilling their Castlemaine XXXX's 8)
