Pauly,
Do you have any idea what Gear Ratio "Wilma" has please,   I
have a real soft spot for Gear Driven Loco`s especially if they
have Flywheels hanging out of the Glovebox!.

Iv just been to alans again for a couple of hours, I forgot the camera though  

but it was still great!  I took my Bachmann shay (I cant use it on my layout) and ran that for a while, those cylinders are so mesmerizing!

and I ran Vincent for a couple of gas fillups
it really comes into its own once its warmed up
on a nippy day Vincent is just fantastic because the steam leaves the funnel so saturated so it looks fantastic.

and I had great fun playing with his electrical trains as well.
the atmosphere was just so fun and friendly  

and hopefully his mamod should be up and running again soon

Get a good steam shot of your Vincent as you describe Pauly- That shot sounds a treat to see!!
