Hey, that's not you! That's Gordon, and Clarabell, and Annie. What did you guys do to Thomas?!?!

Seriously, I thought your handle was a play on the "Flying Dutchman" (there's a guy on RCG who goes by "Crashing Dutchman" which makes sense in a different sort of way).

SAR used these 2up to tow the coal trains from LeighCreek to the PtAugusta power station.. longest train on record 2900metres(1.82miles long )
