Very nice, now we need to see it steaming in the snow.

Great picture! But why is it not steaming? I wonder if the Mamod TE has enough power to trudge through snow? That would make a great video if it does!

It would be great indeed, I should try it some day.
I'm not sure about basic TE's but a piston valve traction engine could have enough power. It depends on the thickness of the snow though.

Here's my TE running stationary on a balcony. There's not enough space to let it drive around.
Temperature was -2 °C (28 °F). (Not very cold, when I took the first pic it was about -16 °C (3° F))
Here's the video:
