Nothing like the real deal. Legend has it that giants shovel coal into the firebox while everyone is asleep. But the town's people are having none of it.
Its a nice loco but I would personally find the shovel difficult to use with it being bent like it is. I suppose I am used to a straight shovel rod so I know where it is going into the fire box! Interesting loco and you don't often see one with the hackworth valve gear.
