TL45 Mallet

This link from Sinsheim 2014 clearly shows a TL 45 HSB Mallett on a rolling road with the forward motor block certainly faster than the aft block. 23.54 minutes in from the start.

It's at 13:54, after the Piko 2-6-2T (the vid is 23:54 long!). Shame they didn't sort the rollers out under the front unit.
 
Well, its been out in the garden and I can say I am very satisfied with it.
The pulsed smoke is good (cant honestly say its great) at low speeds, at medium and higher speeds you cant see the individual chuffs).
The two motor blocks run at the same speed. Nothing fell off (not even the skates)and the Massoth sound is great. Runs smooth and free and looks brilliant.
It certainly looks as if Trainline have been on a steep learning curve on this one but they do seem to have got it sorted. I would strongly suggest anyone with an earlier model get onto their supplier for some spare parts.
