Monster indeed! I filmed this run from the nearest droplight on the other side, it was one of the loudest steam locos I've had the pleasure of sampling. Shame it failed on Sunday, depriving more people of the experience. I understood that its innards needed attention anyway, as you describe in your blog.
A truly amazing machine, thanks for sharing, I notice you used a different camera for this clip....Bob

@TimHall42 She lost alot of pressure on that run...200 went down 90, even with heavy firing. Maybe some lap and lead attention :)
