Sit back and enjoy this video walking through the steps to fire up my 2.5" scale C&S No. 10! This locomotive's history is closely intertwined with the JT&S, and I may make a video in the future talking about the engine's history and significance in the world of 7.5" gauge narrow gauge locomotives

We hauled ass up to Vegas and then across the side of the beach to Denver.
So we stopped at Silver Plume. It was the first thing we went to.
Then we went to Idaho to work in a showroom.
Then we went down to go to Salida.
But I kept going straight and then we drove over a bunch of houses.
It's my birthday this weekend.
What are you going to be, like 16?
I'm going to be 20.
And I was like, okay, I answered that question.
I'm trying to figure out.
I'll stick with my 16.
I figured, well, mom, I'm 51.
Give me a pillow.
Rats taking over?
No.
Look at the edges.
Oh, okay.
I was going to do those plants like we did in the box car.
But of course.
Not my problem.
Can't get in.
I would say I did it right.
There's heat on the side.
Matt says to give it to you and you'll make it.
Do it.
Okay.
I'm not going to do the wall.
One by one.
Actually, I know how you do that.
I thought you had to do that.
I'm going to show you how to do that.
I'm going to show you how to do it.
5 by 5 by 8 foot.
Use baton boards on the ends of it.
Two by two.
One of them was in .20 tender and the other one was in .15, .24, .25, .30.
Oh! You don't want to burn these. You better get a marking pencil.
I already don't know which one is which.
I have it. I have it.
Can't smoke a cigarette the whole time.
Oh my gosh.
Pretend like you've got inertia and you're trying to start.
I better have it just be like what you dial is what you get.
It'll get burned around.
