My Bassett-Lowke LMS Enterprise tinplate live steamer arrived as I was going out the door to work.  After shift, I came home and got to unpack my new train.  After some wipe down, oiling the locomotive was ready.  But after a test filling of the alcohol burner revealed a split seam at the rear of the tank, a quick resoldering job was in order.  After that was squared away, the fire was lit and a short test run was done on blocks.  She runs well.  With no actual throttle, speed is controled by the load she pulls.  Obviously at this hour, a run on track is not an option as my wife would have my hide for that.  Hope to get a chance to run it on track later this weekend.
