Sunday firing turn

Just to get away from the angst and horror stories around the Sabre death throes I should like to post a couple of pics of my Shawe Fowler running at David Anning's line at Torquay. I ran for around an hour and a half ? and this is a very well balanced machine. Unfortunately I did not get a decent shot of it whilst running on smelly (and smokey) coal, but it was a lovely afternoon. I have set up the DJB resonator whistle to provide a lovely deep note (as befits my only tender locomotive).

Very nice Tag! The pressure gauge in the cab looks just right as well (not like on other locomotives where it looks more like a small clock!)

Fowler looking lovely as always Tag. Nice line to let her stretch her legs a little as well :)
