That's a delightful video Peter. Sensitively filmed with some excellent camera work. The watering and disposal scenes were particularly striking. Add in a few more lineside shots and some more cutaways (!) and you have nearly a quarter of an excellent NNR DVD!

Keep up the good work

6619 is an 0-6-2T - I must have missed this event. Thanks for the record. Al

[peter8121]

Yes of course. Thanks for pointing out my error Alex. I do apologise...

Very good video there! But the whistle doesn't sound like neither of the two GWR whistles.

[peter8121]

Thanks Philip, Yes 6619's chime surprised me too! Not quite what I was expecting to hear! Sounds distinctly American to me (akin to the S160).

that whistle needs sawing off a putting a GWR whistle instead the proper whistle

[Daniel5343]

if only all GWR locos had a whistle like that

You would not want to sit on the smokebox, however! Next time it's raining and you are watching a steam locomotive, hear how the rain spits as it hits the smokebox. What it might do to somebody's rear does not bear thinking about.

I always wondered if it would burn your butt to sit on a locomotive's boiler while under way.

Now I know the answer.

A fantastic video I really enjoyed watching it. Now that chime whistle seriously gets on my nerves!
