Wow. I'm jealous. I would love building one

👍👌👏 Extremely well done again and as always (video and restoration). Thank you for rescuing and restoring such a great old time witness. And thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health to all involved people.

Doing a very good job on this restoration, and also the videos do show us a lot of the details. After shotblasting and primer the parts looked like a giant Airfix kit!

I bet Tully will look fantastic when she's finished 😃

im loving the boredom of covid progress :) keep it up lads ..just think its a miniture but on a larger scale :P

Very fascinating and interesting watching these videos, thanks for putting the effort into making them. Love the way the parts came out after being blasted and painted!

Great progress being made👍. Can’t wait to see parts going back together 🙂

Keep them coming. Excellent work lads!

Fantastic work Simon 👍❤

Tully will love her new whistle

Great video, keep them coming 👍

I'm sad. No new video for 7 months. Hope that all of you are still healthy and we will see more of the restoration process in the future.

Loving the videos on this restoration! I'm surprised that the valves aren't balanced (Such as a Richardson arrangement). Is this perhaps because the valves are so small, or is it because of the lower working pressure of the locomotive? Thanks for showing the equalizing of the driving wheels. I love getting into the technical details of the running and design of steam locomotives!

Love your work.Will there be a new video about the restauration?

You just said Elizabeth's and Jake's numbers 😃👍❤

Great work. Is this all being done In Your workshops? Thanks

No updates?? Project stalled or going incompleted?

I presume you edited out the language when the lump of hot metal hit Dave on the kneecap.

Would be better if these was in HD though. Looks like it was filmed in the 90s. Still ok to watch though.

Any new updates?

Do you guys ever want volunteer to help work on these locomotives I'd love to do it learn some more will help me with mr restorations of my 5 inch gauge locomotives

the smokebox door looks like a bundaberg

Is this your locomotive?

I do like the videos but I feel I need to make a constructive comment. You need to pay more attention to health and safety in your workshop. Handling / pressing heavy parts without safety shoes or boots is plain daft. One shot shows he pressed part nearly hitting someone's foot. Grinding in shorts with sparks and metal directed to bare legs ditto. If you have never had a cutting disk shatter yo are lucky, trousers / overalls might not entirely prevent injury but will significantly lessen it. I do speak from a background of steam restoration as I am a Director of a standard gauge owning group undertaking a Heavy General Overhaul on a locomotive and the owner of an engineering business working on heritage projects. I saw too many preventable accidents happen at the start of my career including two that had life changing outcomes.
