It looks it barely fit on the track ^v^"

What a little beast that is.

That's a super engine Julia. Hope to see more of it on the track. I'm sure you are pleased to own it. Take care. Cheers Nobby

What a nice loco, you'll have lots of fun with that 👍🙂

Lovely!

The Greedy Beast😄😄👍👍🚂🚂😉😉 cheers Julia Kev

:)

Nice work there - always pleasing to see components come together isn't it?

Very nice video, looks like a fun outing for everyone! Thanks for posting, Julia!

It's a no wonder that these trains take so long to build Julia. So many small parts to make. How do you keep track. Enjoyable to watch though. Cheers Nobby

Looking good Julia one question & one suggestion You say weghtshaft i say weighshaft, i only refer to this because my simple mind has only come across this in my Sweet Pea Book by Jack Buckler. ???? and he says "weigh"Just wondered why Also instead of Araldite for filling unsighty gaps and blending corners have a go with carbody scratch filler, no mixing, dries quick and sands better, and deeper fills can be built up in layers. Just a thought as when i try to sand araldite it seems to be a bit rubbery and clogs the sand paper. see you next time atb Kev

I'm always amazed at how powerful these engines are, and the weight they can pull. Such a lot of fun, but the drivers don't seem very happy 😂. Or is it all the concentration 🤔 ATB Julia. Cheers Nobby

Lovely video Julia love the black 5 👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks very much for posting as i wasn't able to get there i. Person. Cheers. .

Great Day by the looks of it, i recognised one on the track from our club cheers Julia👍👍🚂🚂 atb Kev

Good to see it chuffing around

Your little Ellie can certainly show a goot turn of speed Julia😅

I think the expression is. " going like a train " Congratulations on a successful build . Cheers Brian.

Wow it fly’s Julia lovely little loco well done on its first run 👍🏻👍🏻

well done on its first lap Julia, nice to see productive work come to life 🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 atb Kev

Jen was running it again at the weekend, every time it runs it gets better so its running in well.

Weeeeeeeeee! There she goes!-

That really is a cute little engine Julia. But I guess a lot of skill required to build it. Was it made from plans? I did enjoy watching it. Five times in fact 👍👍 Cheers Nobby

Lovely little loco, runs a treat 👍👍👍

most impressed. what a fiddling job carried out to perfection

Yes please, show the other one too. I'm curious to what extent it's easier the second time.

Nice process and great result. I wonder if they left that short part long deliberately so it can be shaped to blend to the radius the way you did? Anyway, nice work all round. Also - shenanigans. Or did I hear shednanigans? 🙂

I would not have tig this part. Silver solder would give a better finish with no blow outs in the metal

Another good video Julia those bit you had to file off were a limitation of the laser cutting I suspect , I think Ed leaves extra so you can file the angled bit to fit. One thought that came to mind is to file an angle on the ends of the tabs in the slots so you could weld in the gap and reduce the filing, (something I will try in my cavern later)

I'm mesmerised. It's just fascinating watching this building. Big wow

Great video Julia. That was a very complex part to make. Huge amount of work involved. I love that little belt sander. Such a useful tool. I'll add one to my imaginary wish list. I won't ask you to film this all over again. ATB Nobby

Complicated component Julia Well done👍👍👍👍 that tig welder is too much for my small brain🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Think i would have brazed the lot see you next time atb Kev

Lovely job Julia Video what you would like to post it’s all very interesting to see how you do things 🚂🚂🚂👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Some more nice film work Julia, complete with farm yard sound effects. Very nice 👍 Cheers Nobby

What a load of fun!

not sure about the track needs some up grading

Nice photography there Julia..the drone footage is impressive.

Lovely railway love the sound effects 😂👍🏻👍🏻

Thats Sir Haydn Not the good ol Taly' Trust me i would know.

The scenery is really well done, although a little behind in maintenance. Also, has this garden seen some flooding recently?

nice one Julia, thought it was on a loop🤣 you may need to lay some extra track😉👍👍 cheers Kev

Beautiful ! I always see your video. Garden also beautiful. If you attached some children noise then it will be a live pic. Waiting for reply.... thank you, see again.

This is really nice Julia, very good to see how things are looking so far. On an unrelated note, have you seen what's going on with Mamod? Really sad.

Hopefully those countersunk screws between top slide-bar and motion-bracket have been Locktited in place. I remember one dropping down on a 15-inch gauge engine at speed, in the late 1990s, and being hit by the crosshead. It caused a lot of damage, not least it smashed the motion-bracket (a steel casting) so badly that our engineers had to fabricate a complete new one.

Great job Julia You'll soon be able to take apart and put back together with your eyes shut. Have a nice sunday Im just boarding a steam train on hol at paignton See you next time Atb Kev

I've always had a respect for how clean all of you at that meet up keep your engines so clean, very good work!

pays to take the time to view all components for fit up. nice job

I guess I have the same problem. Parts just won't play nice together. Its fun though 😮 Cheers Nobby

That is a very complex assembly to get to go together and move freely - there’s much to be pleased with there. Really excellent work. I encounter those assembly things frequently. You’re so deep in it that sometimes you just don’t see how moving one thing solves the assembly sequence. Great video. 👍
