Ben Collier's video sequence of 'The line up' at York Railway Museum on Saturday 05.07.08 (costing £32.50 per person to attend) of '4' A4's after 60007 had just arrived from London with it's train and later 60009 was to head north from York to Edinburgh with the train but unfortunately it failed at Tyne Yard before Newcastle and had to carry on diesel hauled before 60007 was to be sent up Sunday morning light engine to join the diesel hauled train for the return at Tyne Yard.
This is the first time for years and years that all the A4's lined up and the first time Mallard has emerged out the museum for over 20 years.
Witness them all whistling as 60009 works past them on the mainline as it heads north. Of course the legendary Mallard in the foreground wasn't whistling but the spectacle was defining and spine tingling Chime Whistles galore! Saturday 05.07.08 (less info)
