MDSME: part 2: parallel running with 7 1/4" 0-4-2 "STEPHEN" on Raised Track

Sunday 02/11/2008: one of the 7 1/4" gauge steam locos that normally operates on the ground railway at the Thames Ditton Miniature Railway was tested on the multi-gauge raised track, which normally plays host to 5" and 3 1/2" gauge locos.

This video is a first take at filming while parallel running, there will hopefully be a more successful 2nd attempt soon (the lead to the controller on the class 50 got dislodged half way round)! Most of the background noise is that of the sound module on the class 50.
