    Cracking video Steve, with a brilliant soundtrack, but, oh what an engine that Scots Guardsman is....

    Many thanks for turning out today Steve and sharing with us.

    Cheers,

    Alan

    That is an outstanding video of 46115 and her crews on magnificent form.
    Thanks for venturing out to film it.

    Today's run shows the wisdom of not overloading the motive power. Ten behind a Scot and it's master of the job, eleven behind a Jubilee and it needs a backside-kicker, even if it is "only taking its own weight". Of course matters were helped by the closeness to WCRC's base in case of trouble but it is still a case of a steam hauled trip responsibly done. EDIT: Yes, 10 coaches, sorry that I can't count from a video!:(

    Yes excellent footage Stephen and it was good to see you again today up at Shap Wells,thanks for accommodating me on the wall under your camcorder . You did very well with the last two shots great light at Eskmeals which we had at Nethertown,but no exhaust and the last shot at Dalton what power from the Scot.

    No! I do now! :Pompus: Presumably a reasonably new restriction, as I've seen shots from there where it's worked right through only a couple of years ago?
