Great video, looks a nice cub with some very impressive locos, and a nice lengthy track, and Great Weather to boot. My Speedy lives In a box which lives on a wheeled box that is level with my boot, so fortunately I do not have any gradient issues. I just slide the Speedy (in it's box) into the boot. Your loco looks very impressive, and good filming. Your injector sounds nice. Cheers.
It would be nice to be able to have them all at car level, but workshop space restricts that a bit… lol. My speedy and Jinty share a double deck trolley, I’ll be taking one of them this week, so watch this space to see them… Thanks, the loco does go well, although I feel it could be better, but it’s fine for the time being unless something goes very wrong and it needs a rebuild.
At the moment it’s only Smokey house coal that’s an issue, which is what the full size burn too, but we burn anthracite which isn’t currently being stopped, although supply may get harder if merchants stop… there are alternatives being trialled in places like ecoal which acts like coal but is made up of different things.
The problem is the greens do not know about the different types of coal. Whilst the government says it supports heritage railways they do nothing about securing any local based coal supplies.
It’s not the best, but with limited space needs must… the block and tackle make it a lot more manageable. In fact this time I had an issue unloading but the rope gave a lot more control over it while I corrected.
Great fun to watch! Thanks, Tom!
Amazing video. Really insightful. Thanks for sharing :)
Lovley engine I’ve got a 5 inch gauge baby Deltic which I love

Looks a great rail set. Can i ask where it is. St George's Day is 23 April.
This was mote park, Maidstone. Filmed on 24th April, hence mentioning that St George’s Day was the day before.
What would happen to steam trains if coal is banned?

Loading and unloading looks rather precarious, be extra careful
