Steaming in the cold

Not much garden railway activity lately, though I did manage to steam Cackler in the cold yesterday. She ran beautifully with the gas set low, a lovely plume of steam and the quiet 'ticking' of the motion - very nice!

Got some graphite yarn to pack the gland nuts of the MSS which seems to have helped; tried another (unsuccesful) attempt to fix the loose crank pin!!!
