    Very nice! Looks like she drafts well with that much accumulation in the smokebox!

      She really does, possibly a bit too well, sometimes tempted to open the blast out ever so slightly, but it can be good that it recovers quickly on the run…

    Looks to be a good loco I see what you mean about the draught being good.

    So how long did you dun to end up with that amount of soot in the box?

      I was only on the track about an hour or so, but it was fairly continuous running… am tempted to try opening the blast a touch to see how it goes.

    How many people could this loco pull?

      I’ve done passenger hauling with it, pulling 4/5 people, as long as the track conditions are reasonable.
