  • What a fantastic noise that castle's making!! :D

  • Please reload the video!!! The sound appears to be screwed up?

  • Stunning sound!

  • i am a nere steam enthusiast but I have never heard that much squeaking ... obviously somfin is amiss !

  • Awesome!  You can't help but will her to make it ... unlike those soulless infernal combustion engines and vacuum cleaner motors ... LoL

  • that is EPIC! 5*

  • Awesome sound

  • 6024 King Edward I is due back into Plymouth again 2nd May 2009

  • Thats alot of power,4 cylinders going off like gunshots,anybody know what kind of HP is going on there?

  • I should imagine around 2,000 / 2,500hp? This is only a guess mind you but its around that

  • lovely sound 5*

  • nice vid

  • I Think I've gone deaf!! Wow!! Awesome..now that loco was really giving it some..the best bit of footage of a loco departure I'ver ever seen!! Thanks

  • best loco ever!

  • That's not a shotgun exhaust,that's an artillery barrage! Awesome.

  • great footage should go on forever-thanks

  • And that's why you can't teach someone to drive a steam locomotive on a simulator! It's all seat of the pants stuff. A bit more regulator and that could've been a serious slip! Great stuff.

  • Love it! Great sound! - and it saves me the airfare from NZ

  • is it common for engines to encounter a bit of slipage when departing Plymouth?

  • Its from a standing start,

    on an uphill gradient

    on reverse curves

    and on damp rail.

    Wouldn't expect any slippage on a dry rail but it's always a spectacular sight whatever the loco and whatever the conditions.

  • I live near Plymouth and spotted there as a youngster. Slippage was regular with single engines on a heavy load

  • wow! 6024 is MGM to me. A very ellagant, grand, smart looking loco i give my rating 10/10 for 6024

  • Wow! i love this video!

  • Great shot!!!!
