I have seen it and it is good.
I wasn't actually paying that much attention, but it certainly seemed to be going very well, got steam up quickly and produced plenty of it- for a "new" engine I was very impressed. Nice chap too, he gave me some spanners... Incidentally it isn't Tags, as he has something else coal fired on order, although he did say if he hadn't made that order then he would be getting one. If that makes sense.
Anyway, if anyone has one on order (or wants to order one, if there are any left) then for your money I don't think you'd be dissapointed at all.
However Tag's DJB Edrig, with a bit of fettling, is now going extremely well and that's an even cheaper avenue into coal firing.

Not sure if you can see teh pictures if you haven't registered. In fact, I'm not sure if you can see any of it.
And yes Pete, I do look like a hippy... But a happy hippy.

It is some kind of new website- specifically, a G scale forum!
It's a replacement for the old G Scale Mad.
For the record, I'm not a pikey, I'm a student. There is a slight difference, but it's tricky to tell at a glance.
