5043 Earl Of Mount Edgcumbe on 'The Red Rose' 16-04-11

Some scenes of Vintage Trains 'The Red Rose' tour Between Tyseley, Huddersfield, Blackburn and Wigan. Starting at Manchester Victoria with the loco accelerating hard on the approach to Miles Platting Bank and raining hot Cinders all over the platform and the people waiting. Then on to Hebden Bridge in Yorkshire where the train had to pass slowly through the station due to gauging issues. Finally, moving to Wigan North Western with a pell mell run through the platform at around 75mph.

@7P46115 Hi, Thanks for the comments, I don't know about blowing the roof off, but it certainly showered everyone on the platforms with red hot cinders!!

Watch out for 46115 caught on camara at Lancaster yesterday in our next video.
