Great video mate, nice little loco that, I was suprised how powerful it was, hauling three coaches!

5*

We are very pleased with it's pulling power. At the weekend we trailed it with passengers and could carry 9 adults.

Good when you think it's 1in75 out the station

Wow, quite steep out the station then, I don't think we any gradiants on our miniature railway, well not yet anyway, it will get a bit steep gurther up, may I just ask, when did the CVR start building this line?

[jmmrtcl]

The line as it is now was built over winter 2008/9. But there has been a mini rail since the winter previous but has since been re-built into it's present form.

it's very fast when you get off after coming down the hill my legs were wobbling!

ha ha!

[Firrboxfryup]

Wow, you got it built that quick, we've had our miniature line for nearly a year, and it has not got any longer, it only runs for about 100, 150 yrds, not very far yet!
