The Captain really outdid himself this time :naughty: ...

Here we are, passing Midway Tank with a standard test consist of mine, at 19mph, with the throttle on the peg and 30% cutoff. If you've read any of Gilbert Lathrop's stories, I need say no more...

I would like to take the opportunity to thank Hadrians (Howard Saunders) for his magnificent effort tuning the K27(s) to such a high level of prototypical K27 performance despite the quirks n foibles of TS1. He never once complained even though a K27 may not have been at the top of his shopping list. Hadrians' cooperation and enthusiasim for the ENG side allowed me to concentrate on the model building.

Thanks, too, to Matt Imbrogno, for the 6ET brake controller tweak.

My thanks, also to many other enthusiastic supporters of the K27 project (not yet completed, BTW), acknowledgements are in the readme. Your support enabled this project and kept it honest....well, the buck stops here. To the beta tester team, my thanks.

The K27 #450 loco and tender will be available from ET this week.

I will release version 1.0 of 450 with the modified boiler/stack/dome texture included.

Cheers Bazza

Yeah, I'm teasing......another big thank you to the ol' one-eyed eagle :naughty: .....but without his constant harassment, barracking, thumbsdown, thumbsup, carping, cardsharping, whipcracking, knucklebiting, sabre rattling, tom-tom beating, wise-cracking and butt kicking, I might have fallen by the wayside long ago. One slurp of Uncle Herb's snake oil remedy for slackers, and I was away, I was also back ontrack later, older, wiser and thinner.

Cheers mate and thanks.
