Hello Lego community,

it's much time has passed. More than I thought. Not only fortnight. Unfortunately, I have six weeks needed. But now it runs but the BR 23 Unfortunately, not quite as bubbly. I had hoped for more speed and even more pulling power.

Best regards Udo

Udo, excellent work! Love it! And don't matter about speed, in our country there is a proverb which says: who goes slowly, goes healthy and far away ......

Now, after seen yours, I have to motorized also my BR23 .. and his is very hard (for me )!!!!!

I'd say she's running like she should, decent speed and good power. Offcourse she'll slow down in the tight LEGO turns, specially when she got some load to pull. Try her on a layout with longer straights in between turns, or with smoother radius turns, I think she might surprise you. Sweet engine

Who goes slowly, goes healthy and far away

Lol! I agree ...nice work Udo ...and remember also my locomotives aren't fast ....but a steam engine can't go fast: a steam engine is an old lady! ;-)

Hello community,

thank you for looking. and thank you for your friendly and positive comments.

Best regards Udo

Great to see it run

Great work on the engine. I agree with the others when they say you will get more power and speed when you run a layout with longer straights. Those tight turns on my home layout tax my engines much more heavily than the long straights that we run on our layouts at AFOL events.
