looks like shese pulling out of froghall station going nortbound to cheddleton. was lucky enought to ride the footplate.and experience the 550 yrd tunnel. at the churnet valley railway.
Agreed - Green Arrow is a real nice loco and deserves better from the NRM following it's cylinder crack bad news. I echo others comments on youtube - NRM if u are hearing this - new cylinder casting please! And yes - I do realise what that entails and the cost, but if enough people want it, it will happen hopefully.
Nice!

I have read somewhere that green arrow is taking the place of Flying Scotsman in the workshop in the near future

Fired a few V2s,back in the fifties,on frieght trains,as they were used on both,pulled well sounded great,similar to O2s with larger wheels

Thanks for this, although it makes me very envious haha! Where he opens up the regulator and the subsequent response from the loco is magic!
