OverviewI could not come up with just one adjective to describe this railway. 100's of A frames were cast in soft, white metal, 60 feet of code 196 brass rail; the only items not scratched were the gas-filler valves, the gas jets, the gears, and the pressure gauge.

After looking at more detailed photos of the track work and engine, I'm not sure why this person wasn't given a Nobel Peace prize in "I've got more talent then I know what to do with".

Yes, there is a servo that controls the throttle.
