Actually, Dave, I was suprised how fast it looked but it was a matter of ground level perspective. My Dunkirk has a top scale speed of about 22 mph. Thats only about a third of the top speed of my RS-3 or E-8.

You never heard of fire water!

Those bottles were filled with fire water in case the boiler flamed out. When Cliff came upon a 10% grade he would through in one or two and make it up quick time.

Remember DOC used them in Back to the Future III.

I watched your vidio, and have a question about Cliff is he Cliff Hanger? If so he was fired from the DNRR last year after slamming into a stopped train, The NTSB charged Him with speeding and not folowing Right Of Way Rules. They also found some broken beer bottels at the seen. so I would question him since He seemed to be speeding in the Vidio.

 Direct imbedding does not seem to work. You can add the url tags - [*url]website[/url*] without the "*"s
