I have been eyeing this engine for quite some time. Had a friend bring his over and ran it on the layout. It had a great steam boat whiste, iconic looks, nice paint. I have regular Ross and gargrave switches; radius 100 I think. So I did not see any shorts. Bummer items were; little smoke, chuff sounds were less than OK, no cruise, so watch those grades. Oh and extremely heavy! Watch those bridges and trestles.
