@@cornholio329 So what this I hear you talking smack about us coal burners

[@chesapeakedproductions3009]

When Trainmaster mentioned Anthony's small firebox, it immediately reminded me of Henry before he was rebuilt at Crewe after the Flying Kipper wreck. His original design (a rejected flawed LNER A class Pacific Gresley had chucked) had a tiny firebox for a Pacific wedged between the rear drivers, making him a poor steamer on regular coal

[@Somerandompokemon]

I thought henry was a hybrid between atlantic and pacific. Which is why he had good pulling power but poor steam buildup.

Got to say I really loved this episode and I loved the music that was played when Anthony was running my kind of music and fitting for him I loved how they used an Additive I liked the first idea of mixing it with his oil being an oil change mechanic I have done that many times myself but when they were going to fill his tender bunker completely with that additive I said "Oh Not Good" but one question lingers what was this additive that people sell to make a few quick bucks. Hope Coleman will still be his engineer and does not get arrested or fired I liked him too.
