Was there ever a more beautiful locomotive in the whole history of rail, than the Castle? Elegant, sleek, powerful, aesthetically almost perfect, a triumph of imaginative design which stands the test of time effortlessly. The only fault I can think of in the design was the introduction of the double chimney but of course that was needed for other reasons. I never get tired of looking at these most lovely of machines. Thank you, Mr Colet.
Thank you for your comment, glad you enjoyed the video. The Castle is definitely up there as being one of the best steam locomotive classes ever to be made.
