Looks great Ash! Any R/C on board, and is that lovely rake of coaches by Kingscale? Tim

no it's manual, but behaves well on level track.

Ashley, three great videos you posted! Is the Brit the same one I filmed at Alan M's last September?

it is, the prototype from kingscale. p.s any owners, we were originally disapointed about the lack of a dropping grate. on the last run i spotted cut outs in the frames just behind the trailing driving wheels, it was a case of a bit of bent wire through this hole, to give the best raking out of the ash pan and cleared out the debris almost totally. on a previous run we gave her a final stoking of anthracite and she ran for 22 mins before running out of steam!!

And the coaches Ash?

those coaches are one ex alan marsden mk1 and three g.r.s b-sets, the one with "frosted windows" is mine and currently for sale . we do also have a rake of kingscales and they look great too-see other videos at my channel wattam100 for further britannia, 14xx and pavie loco's, as well as alan marsdens jubilee.
