    I hope 44871 gets the break it deserves, it’s been EVERYWHERE this year! Great catches!

      There was quite a strong north westerly wind blowing and I had a lot of trouble keeping up with the train!

    Wow, whats better than a steam engine/train, usually nothing apart from when its filmed from a vintage aeroplane, two of my loves in one video, thank you... 😊

    How do you get to each location so quickly? It has baffled me for the past few videos, and I just don't get it.

    How much mileage has that loco clocked up this year? It must have covered the highest mileage of any steam loco since pre-1968

      I would’ve thought at least 13,000 miles by now. I was told a a month or two ago it had gone through 10,000.

    Super well done video, what camera are you using?

    Diesel definitely working on the steep stuff - bit of a cheat!

    • @AndreiTupolev

      Inevitable with load 9. I think the limit for a Class 5 was about 7. The limit for a Castle (class 7) was nine

      The penalty charges for a serious delay let alone a breakdown are so great that a diesel at the back is a small price to pay. The Black 5 still made a good noise at the front even with some assistance at the rear.

      The diesel just purring up Hemerdon, putting out a measly extra 1000 horse-power!

      Plus the 47 had to be there anyway, to power the Mk2 stock. So that pushes the load up to... excuse my guess here, 10.5, on an already overloaded train for a Black Five?
