    Being a closet steam locomotive fanatic I really enjoyed seeing it wobble down the rail! I need to look into the engine design, did it have twin boilers and fire boxes? So interesting!!

    Certainly looks that way, to me. I was wondering about the water tank and coal bunker. It looks as if the fireman would have to stoke both boilers from the one side.
