Duke of Gloucester Attacks Whiteball Bank (04/05/08)

[RailMon]

Excellent video showing vitually perfect firing on the climb, with very little exhaust smoke Etc. I was in the support coach and was not impressed with the 67's failure at Dainton. The fact that the Duke got to within 300 metres of the summit towing a dead diesel was impressive If it had made it all the way, it would have been nothing short of a miracle.LoL.

Hugh the railmon.

[RailMon]

How true, especially when the 67 fails.

5542 cant do that!! A diesel has more power along with the Duke. Prairies cant go on mainlines either
