Is that London bus running as if it were straight from the box? I never would have though it would have the power to haul itself!

Loved the bus and roller videos...man that roller moves FAST!!!  As for the bus, I don't believe I have ever seen one actually operate and obviously quite well.

Thanks for sharing,
Rog

Richard and Andrew,
It sure is nice to see the Marklin under steam and doing some useful work. Great display table!
