Another great video Tom. Runs and sounds great (as you stated), not a whisp of steam past cylinder packings etc. You have certainly got the hang of your edditing suite. Cheers.
This isn’t my loco, I was just driving it as it was built and is owned by a friend, but as far as I know it was built to the Martin Evan’s drawings with no problems. I don’t know if it’s ever been round really tight radius curves, but has always done well wherever it’s been.

Just what I needed Tom. Just started rebuilding my (unfinished) B1 tender today. Had it too long - must get it finished. Thanks
Makes two of us
Really beautiful model.
Great shots, Tom. Thanks!

It is curious how some safety valves, "blow a raspberry" and others just roar in the more prototypical way.
It comes down to the design of the seating of the ball inside the valve, and the builder/owners preference for how they lift.
The amount of lift versus the diameter of the ball in the cavity
Fantastic video 😊👍
Thanks.
There are lots of comments from people to extend the length of the bogie frame to clear the cylinders, did you find this was needed?
