lovely to see this one negotiating what appears to be tight radii and points at that station. but then i tell myself its just the depth perception of the videos😊 or are those curved track really a bit tight. what is the average radius profile there at Hercules,yet the 15 handles it with ease. lovely, but short video. many thanks
Fantastic boiler with about the biggest grate possible. Man, that thing will STEAM!
It's incredible to think that this giant of steam is running on 3ft 6in gauge track! What a marvellous thing it is!

Any chance of renting this showpiece to Rovos Rail for service on the Cape Town to Victoria Falls tourist line?
Thank you. I always thought of 3117 as Hercules.
Thank you @Henry Lazenby
