Just been for a quick drive on the GWSR, very nice loco. Well worth the wait in my opinion, many thanks Digital Traction.

Cheers,
Nick

Lovely little loco - very pleased.

Tried two of the included scenarios on Riviera 50s - just to get the feel...

... then went for the full slog over the Brecon Beacons. I was initially worried that the Collett would suffer the same boiler management / sustained climbing problems as the Fal Pannier - leaving Talybont the pressure plummeted as soon as the track pitch up at 1:38. Knocking regulator and cut-off back saw the speed drop to 15, but pressure start to climb back up. Managed to get the speed back up to mid-high 20s for the most of 7-mile bank

Very well pleased :D


Doesn't half bark going up the big hill - Thank you DT and SSS

... over the Brecon Beacons...
Hmmm...

That suggests that there's a RW/TS Brecon & Merthyr route. Is it currently available?

Kind regards,

It's a personal WIP route...

Currently extends from Talybont on Usk to Pant on the BMR, to Cefn Coed on the Merthyr Branch and from Morlais Junction to Penywern on the BMR / LNWR Joint Railway
