He had the spark retarted I think was the major cause of the overheat, also the radiator needed flushing. They had these solved Sat. afternoon and #1 ran fine. They were back out today (Sun.) and ran it some more, to accumilate some miles. They needed fifty miles to quaify to run on the D&S, This has been done now it's up to the D&S as to whether it runs down there. #1 ran during the heat of the day and did not overheat. It's my understanding #1 has been invited to attend Railfest ,but not necessarly to run. keith
