  • Good work Chris - nice mix of colours in that shot. There's something special about a Duchess rolling effortlessly along like that, and 40 years since they were banished from the mainline... Thank God for preservation!

  • Thanks David and Amen for preservation but don't get me started on 40 years ago - I didn't understand it then and I still don't now. Oh how I hated those decision makers. Heartbreaking times - all those lovely locos cut up in their prime - see what you've started now!!! Chris

  • I didn't manage to get this in the morning but got it later and had a chat with Bill the driver. It was a good location you filmed at and weather good for you.

  • Hi Louisa, a nice location but not one where the engine is working in this direction sadly but as Linesider says above the Duchess looks good even in these situations. Chris

  • Nice one catching the sun as well!

  • Good to get some sun on my back let alone on the engine!!! Chris

  • Hi Elaine - sorry for the delayed response - a fine day indeed (for a change) and the ever reliable Duchess. Chris

  • A fine day to see another fine lady in red.
