Here is a pic and a short video of a Bowman Models 234 locomotive getting a test run before I sent it on to a friend for his very first live steam locomotive. Both model 234's were donated by a very generious gentleman from another forum. I was looking for a model for my autistic friend who is on fixed income.(he is in his mid 20's). Huge model train and live steam fan like myself, just a bit further on the spectrum than I am. This gentleman said he wanted to send my friend the red engine and was sending me one as well. The red steamer will pull his Harry Potter train once I find a tender for it. The LNER version joins my Bassett Lowke Super Enterprise, also in LNER colors. I have added a 3rd rail to my G scale raised garden line so I can now run O gauge live steam/clockwork and battery powered electric models. Enjoy the pic and video! AD
