Roundhouse Garratt

Saw the announcement for the Darjeeling Garratt - nice but expensive.

Does anyone know if it is fitted with a dual burner?
I would think a LOT of water has to be boiled to keep up with 2 sets of cylinders.

I read about it in the "Tradesman's Round" section of this month's Garden Rail.

I expect at some point Mr. Gorton will get his hands on one and do a review of it... that will be exciting.
