Steamed 3 miles down to Masham,Struggled to get back up 2 mile hill home, but managed with Ted's help. By Sunday injector worked perfectly. Lively and great fun to steam. Will be out at Hunton in September.

surely the tube ends are out of the water at the top end? does this give problems? Small boiler though for going any distance, Ill bet that lovely old Aveling dosnt have steaming problems, look at the size of the boiler on it!
