Hi Ivan,

well done on getting that wolseley, if it runs like that , you've definately got a winner, because sometimes i've found even good ones can be temperamental.

best of luck with it!

Temperamental and Wolseley in the same sentence! WD's are a joy to own, mine was the mutts, start 1st flick, ran all day, smooth as anything and dead quite.
There my uncles fav engine, My grandad remembered going to the Royal Cornwall show and there was a WD running on top of a tight rope, at the Wolseley stand, they were that smooth.

From what I read around the forums more people have problems with D's, another engine that is built proof!

Cheers Steve
