Great video. Been there, done that ,when hauling another NRZ garratt up the incline to coaling tower set-back points, from the shed, on a wet winter evening. My supervisor, after three slips that I knew how to deal with, said "Aah, she is now being lazy, let me now put sand." After that, the hauling loco pulled fine. So I do understand the situation here.
Nice of you to get in touch. I aquired the footage from Dave Kent assuming it was his. Looking at it I thought it was more a case of trying to get them working as you did seem to regain traction as if the sanders started just before the bridge.
Top footage! Lovely, hard beat from the loco - nice and loud and crisp - absolutely beautiful! I can't wait for 134 to be up and running in Wales so I can go and film her!
