    Great Deltic video, thanks!! (For a Brit it seems odd to see the Deltic running on the wrong track, going up on the down track??)
    Cheers
    Ron

    Cheers lads, always nice to see the first locos running on a new layout no matter what scale or size.

    Ron. Yes you are correct. The issue is the incline, which Ralph wanted to incorporate into the design, the Deltic makes light work of it but the black 5 struggled on the s bends with the small incline, and in fact almost stopped on one run round. So the inner loop back up the incline will require a banker :lol::lol: which we have, so look out for future videos of the Licky Hill 9F banker lending a helping hand.
    :cheers: Kim
