What a beauty! Would I be mistaken in saying that this is exactly the same type of engine that was used in the film 'The Titfield Thunderbolt' (prior to the resurrection of 'The Thunderbolt/Lion')?
No, this was an Adams Radial Tank from the LSWR. The original locomotive in the Titfield Thunderbolt was a GWR 1400 type - two of which were hired for the filming. The one seen running away onto the road and woods was a dummy 1400 built on a lorry chassis.

Thanks for the info! The dummy locomotive was a very effective facsimile, but the night shots probably helped with that a little.
