Good photos and a nice little video there. :D
The Potting Shed (TPS) did manage a couple of laps before things got very silly.

I blame NWAG for my double heading, it's irresponsible showing such activities to manics with more than 1 loco.

I did find it quite amusing that my phone's camera focuses on Minnie more than TPS!

And finally a couple of (thankfully short) videos of the unusual working.

It seems to be becoming a common thing this, Millies needing rescuing or banking by other locos, Gwydion from the ANLR is an example, Britomart always ends up helping it out! :lol:





Has anyone seen my coat before Laalratty appears?

I don't think James is very observant, that millie was quite obviously pushing the Bluebottle wannabe :lol: . Also, that is quite simply the weirdest double header I've ever seen, you've flown right past NWAG insanity levels! :P (by the way two members of this forum have double headed a Accucraft NGG16 and a mamod in the past, which I still think isn't as mad as that pairing)

I actually don't know! It was just there, so I took a pic, didn't even notice that until you spotted it :lol:
