That shouldn't be a problem on the Limehouse - Teddington trip, since if you do it with the tide you can do it normal canal revs. TheonlytimeI've ever seen any sign of my engine getting too warm while of the tideway was when I was trying to keep up with President and Kildare (and they were running b reasted - which shows just how powerful that steam engine is).
