    A good display of driving, especially dragging the jolly green box along too!

    Brilliant. A great salute from the driver of the '67

    12 plus a loco weighing 3 more? It took off uphill as well. Very impressive for the softly spoken lightweight!

    Is this the train to pottsville?😅

    Stupid question. There seems to be a diesel engine at the end of each steam train. Does it provide propulsion or just make electricity for the coaches?

    • @graftygreen6235

      It can provide propulsion if needed on steep sections and to insure the train keeps to schedule. It can also serve to rescue the steam locomotive if it fails.

      Very sadly it is a requirement that the diesel must travel with a steam engine on the mainline nowadays. Personally I'd prefer if it followed at a discrete distance but there it is.

      ​@@barrymiller3385There would no doubt be an extra charge for the additional movement if the jolly green box were to follow. 🤔

      @@cdnmetelhead4013 I would recommend that you travel on a heritage railway such as the North Yorkshire Moors Railway on a steam gala weekend. The spring and autumn steam galas will have a good variety of locomotives and rolling stock.

    Personally I always get a bit disappointed when I see a magnificent steam hauled train like this, with a diesel engine attached to the rear. Seems a bit of a cheat really and is not consistent with how things would have looked back in the days of steam.

    Wonderful ! But how do we make this more attractive to all ? It takes money , not love , to keep these works of mechanical art alive .

    PLATFORM NONSENSE
    The stupidity of the 'Yellow Line' (so far back as to be barmy)...and the tactile paving, (similarly placed)......much in ebidence here...
