Really enjoyable. Have you heard about ‘Upside-down Fires’…? Coal in first, Small Coals above, then Wood Chunks, then Smaller pieces of Wood, then Kindling Last. Light the top and the fire works it’s way downwards. This method produces less smoke and is claimed to be faster. SAR lit their locos that way.
Brilliant. Thank you, Alex! You make it look easy.
Excellent commentary and instructions keep it up you should be a school teacher
Thank you for sharing this video! I’m very happy with my 2-4-0. 😃

Lovely video 👍
Lovely engine however a bit too expensive for me.
So many things either completely wrong or missed out. Not a great tutorial for what are probably customers with no experience in model steam.
