Fleischmann 135/2

First firing in over 20 years.


We ran the 135/2 tonight using Esbit.  I made my own burner.  We filled the boiler 2/3 full and ran it four times with 7 tablets each run. The boiler had nearly a quart of distilled water in it.

This video is from the first firing. You can see the improvement as the video progresses. By the third firing we had it hooked up to and running  the Wilesco fairground display.  I'm hoping it will be sufficiently run in to power the Marklin Carousel, soon.

We still had almost half a boiler of water at the end.  

Andrew now wants meths for everything.

I really like the Fleischmann Engines and I bet that one packs a punch.
