Fantastic machine, both locos look and sound brill, at the moment me and my dad are building a 10 1/4 inch gauge Diesel hydraulic locomotive, powered by a Ruston 1YA Diesel Engine.

sounds like a beast !
Nice one boys. When are you fitting the silencer? Looks rather speedy in top gear.
About that... :) we are most likely going to keep the manifold as it sounds better and it isn't very loud when not on load.
Very extensive video, is this open to public?
