This gets me in the mood for a 4 inch we've been looking at, we have all the kit for transport and what not it's just about making the full commitment.

[@SteamOTR]

There's no doubt that it's a big commitment, but well worth it I think.

[@Eddiee757]

@@SteamOTR just a matter of time I guess, would be great to meet you with our engines one day though!

excellent video, lovely burrell road loco and garrett 4c.d, thanks for sharing

[@SteamOTR]

Thanks for saying so 👍

[@aperson9950]

Very nice!

[@SteamOTR]

yeah, a very nie engine. Quick and powerful as a road loco should be.

[@Me-mv2bu]

Great video. Do you know what the average speed on the road is of the 4 inch engine and your Garrat?

[@SteamOTR]

Max for the Garrett is about 10mph. For the Burrell it would be similar, or maybe a little higher. Gets pretty scary though with no suspension. You need to be on a good surface for that.

i bet that could pull a lorry

[@SteamOTR]

An engine the same as Tilly pulled 16 tonnes
