Steam-up at Mark's
We had another fine running day at Mark's place yesterday. The weather was cold enough to have great steam plumes, but not so cold that it would be uncomfortable. I managed to forget to bring my good camera, so I don't have any movies and some of the pictures are "artistic" (i.e. shot with my mobile phone)...
I brought my portable dual gauge track to see which gauge one locomotive can pull a full size passenger: the Accucraft K28 pulled me without problem and pulled some heavier passenger with a bit of help starting up hill. The two cylinder Shay pulled a child without problem but could not manage an adult.
