  • People think that "leaves on the line" is just an excuse that rail companies make up to try and justify being late. Here however is actual proof that it is a real problem and isn't just something they made up!

  • Great video, really challenging bit of handling there

  • when the wheels start to spin, you need to be there when they do. Greg

  • Good driver, I think all new drivers should have to watch this to show them how it should be done!!

  • Great handling. A video gem.

  • Now that's what I call wheel slip, I was on the railway Saturday and nearly ground to a halt then! and it was a dry day!

  • Good demonstration of when all lineside vegetation was cut back behind the boundary fence when steam ruled.

    Driver did well to avoid needing assistance.

  • Well now I know it doesn't just happen to me. Well done Rich, well done Dave.

    delboy

  • That is a simply fantastic display of enginemanship. Brilliant

  • Genius.
