I have seen for some time the use of animated giffs using a drawing program, and thought about making my own on camera, here's the results . 9 frames were taken at different rotations of the wheels keeping the loco still in one place.

The top photo is a Camelback I just bought "Mantua" sorry about the size, but to make them bigger would take up far too much memory.
