4 Wheel Drive Toby

The first job following Merstham was to fit the IP Engineering budget chassis 4 wheel drive conversion to the tram engine. This reminded me of technical Lego caterpillar track & spockets from my younger days, although I didn't tend to use epoxy with my Lego ;-) Anyway, it's installed and the loco seems to run more smoothly on the line. It'll be interesting to see if the pulling power has improved (especially with the extra ballast I recently added - two lumps of mild steel).
