5.14 what a strange sounding loco is it out of beat or is it meant to sound like that

[@hamshackleton]

Typ;ical 'Austerity' tank, the quartering is a spline out on all three wheels!

@@hamshackleton needs sorting that...

[@nigelbrazier8585]

Wimblebury has always been off beat due to the eccentric sheaves being wrongly positioned on the axle, a legacy from her industrial days. But she was also suffering from contaminated water over the weekend causing foaming which carries water over into the cylinders, hence the very wooly exhaust and constant opening of the cylinder drains.
