Gradually looking through your videos, Have subscribed 😎

I am a life member of the Claymills trust and had a lot of fun helping run the place last visit. What a treasure that station is and now "A" engine is complete so all four beams are running

@AEKarnes Excellent, it is indeed a fantastic place. A true place of mechanical beauty, as good as any work of art 🙂 Not been for six months or so, and it must be time for another trip.

I wonder if you've had a chance to visit Cincinnati Triple Steam... on my bucket list. Sadly stationary, of course... the (scrapped) coal bunkers themselves were a marvel.
