Tomorrow is my birthday so I ran most of the day today because tomorrow it is supposed to rain. As usual, I ran alone because the nearest live steamer, Pete G, is over the mountain in Lynchburg and there are no others in town. This was a last minute release from my wife's projects, so I didn't have time to invite Pete. I did manage to take a video of one of my three runs with my K-27 pulling all but one of my freight cars. Two more runs were with my Shay pulling logs and my Billy pulling a short passenger consist. It's been a nice day.
You can see one run at

Happy Birthday Carl. Nice video. Looks like you live in a beautiful part of the country.

Did you put one of the chuff enhancers in the k_27. Sounds pretty good.
Again have a Happy Birthday

Yes, we live in west central Virginia at the south end of the Shenandoah Valley with mountains all around. It's beautiful here. And yes, I installed a Bark Box chuff enhancer and have two other videos about it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY G.I. and many more to come running live steam. Will I see you at Stapleton's event in June? In the mean time, keep your pressure up. Boiler that is and
not the other one.....

P.S. Cannot view the videos cause they won't open for me on this new forum, but I am sure they are great.

Noel,
I CHANGED IT TO A HYPERLINK.
No, I won't be at Dr Rivet's in June as I will be at a dog show in Baltimore, but plan on being there in the fall.
