A lovely model of an unusual prototype and I learnt something from this thread

I know it's been a long time coming.... but the weather hasn't been that good for filming my progress..... even IF I had finished it (which I haven't )
Anyway, for anyone still interested I have just posted some footage captured just before the weather changed :impatient:

Hope it lives up to expectations!

cracking job

Superb model,
looked perfectly at home on your layout,
thought it really looked good pushing the track cleaner,
thenn it looked good with the goods wagons,
thennn it looked just as good with the coaches.
super job - well done

Well done all round I'd say Lovely to see it in action Rob - I really like it.

Thank you for your generous comments guys, I really appreciate them :wave:
I now need to get the smoke system sorted properly.... had hidden a twin fan blower in the headlamp but it doesn't work as well as the first one (fitted to my original Annie) and I guess it's too late to return it under warranty .... so may buy a replacement before trying anything more sophisticated using those pumps mentioned in a GSC thread recently :thinking:

Cheers for now and thanks again
