    I love 311, she seems like a sweet engine and a nice runner.

      She sure does, and this is for several reasons: first, 311 has the largest firebox I’ve ever measured on a LE Pacific, at least an inch oversize in both directions. In this video I’m also burning primarily Western bituminous coal, which burns quite like small balls of paper, LOL. Hot, but goes up the stack in 30 seconds. Lastly, the shovel I’m using is a bit small and was really meant for my 3/4” Scale Friends Hudson, but it was the best option since 311’s shovel has a two-foot handle for Highline running. Thanks for watching as always!! 🙌🏻
