Glad you got to see it Tel. Heritage steam railways are good and I have been on many of them but they are restricted to 20mph which doesn't really do them justice. There is nothing quite so wonderful as a steam loco working hard on a main line so here is the same train coming through my village station about 9AM this morning at 60mph plus:
We did get covered in steam and soot but well worth it for a few seconds of sheer magic! Turn up the sound and enjoy.
