The locomotive rolls along freely and runs nicely on air in both directions with crisp, even beats.
Unusually, both locomotive and tender are vacuum braked - the locomotive on both driving and trailing wheels.
Pretty much every fitting, wet header gasket and the regulator leak on the boiler, precluding any meaningful kind of hydraulic test until attended to.
