Yes, I'm aware of the possibility of a steam locomotive breaking down and screwing up UP's parking lot aka the mainline.
Seriously, has the world's biggest tea pot ever run 20 miles pulling some tonnage unassisted?
It just seems like a world class restoration of a steam engine should be able to do just that and not be scooted everywhere with a diesel. I am under the impression that the steamer does not fire correctly. The show is full of smoke and mirrors.
It would add credibility to Mr. Dickens and end the speculation that he doesn't know what he's doing.
