pictures in the brochure,and that has left hand leading and the 71/4 =
Brit

Andy,

This is not true - I drive the evidence round our club track most =
Sundays -
right hand side leading! I recall running round the same track double
heading with "a certain gentleman from South Wales" immediately behind =
me.
The sight of two Winson engines running together drew gasps of =
astonishment
from many club members! We ran quite successfully until bits began =
dropping
of his loco and he had to retire to the steaming bays. I met him several
times, he was apparently a decent geezer but his frequent use of a =
hammer
resolve "minor problems" on his loco were a bit of a worry! I think the
problem with running a three cylinder engine on the outside cylinders is
simply the need to reaarange the quartering of the drivers to 90 =
degrees. If
this is done I can't see any serious problem apart from the obvious one =
of
reduced power.
