Class 50s 50011 (50049) and 50006 (50007) on the Mazey Day Cornishman - 23/06/2018

On Saturday 23rd June 2018, 50049 and 50007, masquerading as 50011 Centurion and 50006 Neptune, hauled the Cornishman railtour to Penzance for the annual Mazey Day celebrations.
This video starts with their arrival at Penzance, reversal and return to the station, and a few static shots.
Finally, we see their arrival at Plymouth on the return trip, a fairly lengthy shot of the pair awaiting the green light (kept filming as they sounded amazing with 007 providing ETS to the train due to a failed generator car) before departing north (departure at 21:27 if you want to skip to this point). Best viewed with the sound turned right up!

I just love the sound of that big V16-250 litres!! Big enough?

50006 has a fast idle can’t think why?
