this vid is  a favourite   clinton took his markie te to show bk.... bks "big jim" is about the same size !!! we were all amazed to find this out as bk "just made his up by eye " and hadnt seen a markie before.

but!!! (just for fun   ) here is clintons markie "running rings" around "big jim"      


we had heaps of fun watching it........ till something "horrible" came along???????

seeing how much fun the markie was having     this monster gate crasher appeared!!!!!   it was "EGOR" (THE HORRIBLE)    the markie was left idling whilst we waited for "egor"    
xlchainsaw

lenny decided that "enough was enough" so he called in his fire brigade.    
xlchainsaw

after lenny had put out egors and the markie fireboxes with the fire brigade.     he confessed to having another "un steamed" engine...   but luck was with us. clinton still had george the boiler in steam. (no engine excaped a steaming today!!!)

we sure did geoff..... this years theme wasnt really about "display" it was about "hands on" steaming. i wish i had taken more vids. abduls collection of engines was terrific....as you know im not a wilesco mobile fan . but seeing his collection made my mouth water....all in steam. chris had heaps of rare engines there..... and steamed them all....... he also had clintons mf steam twin in steam......liz was very impressed. id have to have been in ten different places at once to have covered it all. ive shown just a "glimpse" clinton was so generous!!!!! he shared his table about so we all had a chance to steam a "markie"....a midwest steam plant.....mf twin... and he was more than generous with steam produced by "george" its been the first "steam " party ive been to.

Thanks Glenn & Liz for the great vidoes, something to remember for the future - what a great day. Thanks for the video of the Philcraft, the first I've seen of mine in action.

Cheers
