    If No.17 were a kitten or puppy, youd be up to 10m views by the end of today .... it's that cute!! That cab cannot be much larger (or much more complicated) than 3'-6" gauge Alf's.
    And those carriages .... the 4w ones remind me of those built in the UK for the North London Railway, way back in the 1860s. Superb restorations.
    And that traverser ... I've never seen one like it.
    The Norwegian Railway Museum just made my "bucket list"!! 🙂

Our oldest loco still running is the 1864 2-4-0, it make the same sort of noise. Lots of respect to those keeping these old things working.
