Steve - Thanks for the great video clip - it certainly does look good pulling the 3/16" cars. I'm imagining how good it would look pulling a string of...
... Rail ... Great looking video Steve. Did you use a T&S to PKC adapter? Looks like the line-up was a little high on the back of the tender, but it looks like...
