well, with all of my steam experience from BJWRR and just all of my knowledge, I asked while we were running around the train in Niles if I could fire a bit and the engineer said sure, pointed out a few things and I was on my own for a good 10 mins or so. Emphasis on turning wrenches before anything else out there tho.
I fired this engine yesterday. I'm now a member out there and yesterday, Saturday was my first day. We fired up the 3 for a shakedown run. All went well.
