    I know its from 2006 but watch 45407 come under the bridge!
    Its on the 1 in 50 between Bradford Interchange and Bowling Junction heading for Halifax.
    A one off tour from Past Time Rail. Gone but not forgotten.
    This is just a snip of what was taken that day.

    I was on that one before I started my on board videoing. What a sequence that start from Bradford would have been.

    Lighten up Ralph. This is a light hearted thread regarding copious amounts of clag. Not a discussion as to if it should or should not be allowed.
    Wouldn't be at all surprised if that wasn't prearranged for someone's benefit, a common enough practice in BR days and still done today. A driver
    I know carries plastic bottles filled with old sump oil - clag bombs - on the footplate for that very purpose.

    Decided to look at the 60163 clip this morning and guess what......... "this video has been removed by the user".
    I wonder why?

    There should be another one from a different vantage point unless that's been removed too.

    I wonder what effect the lack of steam has on that output of smoke?

    Did the Bradford Residential run more than once because I went on it when it started and finsihed at Bradford Interchange, but I seen mention elsewhere that it ran from Man Vic and was diesel hauled from Leeds back into Interchange?
