With the diner attached to the 4-car day train, load behind the drawbar will be about 280-290 Tons.

Superb video of a typical winters day at the ELR.

In effect a fantastic advert for the railway.

Thank you.

The wheelbarrow was winning until he ran out of steam. Probably all the fat sods in the dining cars to blame, eaten too much pudding again!:-) 5*

@growler37

You could be right :- ) They probably didn't even notice.

To be entirely fair, I suppose, it did have 8 coaches. Weren't the sanders working, though?

[mollsmyre]

@AndreiTupolev

You'r right there, it was a fair old weight to haul.I could be wrong but it looked to me like they were putting sand down by hand in addition to the sanders.

I was just glad to have witnessed their skills.
