    They always tend to look bigger, but this is compounded by the fact that platforms are lower so you have to look up to them more that here at home.

    I saw her storming through Bulach doing at least 80Kph whilst we, the support crew for 141R 568 were dropping the left hand connecting rod or attempting to at least. What an awesome sight it was too. More in the next steam railway about 568 I believe.
