Post subject:  2100 update from GPRR

We did a special sound recording for Warner Bros. for a upcoming movie. Everything was done the way they (Warner Bros.) wanted it. Except for the first stop statring the hill. We had a car brake that didn't release.

For the last (I hope) time. There is nothing wrong with the fireing on 2100. She carried 240 lbs of pressure all the way up the hill, even with TWO stops and starts on the hill. I do not know who started all this CR-P about her not fireing correctly, but is just that.

So the most recent performance issues surrounding RDG 2100 (stalls and slip, etc.) were staged for the benefit of Warner Brothers? If so, maybe the engine can be called the "Rumor Express" (smile).

Thanks for looking after the engine.
