@harryfaber
@harryfaber 18 дней назад
Soft wood for quick heat, hardwood for longer burning and less stoking, what I learned recently is that wood from vines, when dried, is good for BBQs. Historically, a lot of French coal was pretty awful, which forced French steam engineers to develop more efficient steam engines.

When you can pick them up for just £20-£30 they are irresistible. I’ve learnt a lesson from my rapidly growing fleet of Dublo 3 rail locos. Examples that "don’t work" never stay that way for long. They are so easy to repair, and I just can’t bring myself to break them up for spares. So my "non working" 0-6-2T sat for 6 months awaiting scrapping with a bizarre electrical fault. I was pretty sure the armature was dead. Then last week I took it apart and discovered the card insulation tube between the brush tube and the chassis had somehow broken down. So I replaced it with some paper (!), gave the loco a clean and a remag and no surprise, away it went! So now I need another one for spares…🙄
