Interesting to see the action of the Joy valve gear. The way it works had been a mystery to most of us I'm sure, and we can now at last see it in action! What a lovely little engine. Hope to see, and be pulled by her in the not too distant future. And a sweet little engine such as this most definitely has to be female!
If I were this railway I would be thinking about using coal again with the price of oil etc!
In america they use old engine oil to fire the challenger stuff etc runing today.

Stunning, and more imposing that I thought she'd be! A missing piece of English narrow gauge history returns! Thank you!
