With plenty of spare time at the moment, I have finally had a moment to put together a steam at speed compilation, so sit back and enjoy these mainline monsters let off the leash in Southern England, operating upto the current permitted 75mph limit. Featuring 9 Locomotives: SR West Country No.34046 'Braunton' SR Battle of Britain No.34067 'Tangmere' SR Merchant Navy No.35018 &India Line' SR Merchant Navy No.35028 &Line' LNER A4 No.60009 &of South Africa' LMS Royal Scot No.46115 &Guardsman' LMS Jubilee No. 45699 'Galatea' LMS Black 5 No.45212 BR 7MT No.70013 &Cromwell' Footage taken between 2009 - 2019 Foot note: Diesel locomotives "Tail Gunner" The use of Diesel locomotives on some tours is because of operational reasons. Some of the tours run to destinations with no turning facilities, so the diesel hauls the train to a location where the steam loco can take over again. They are also used for train heating, assistance on steep gradients(especially during leaf fall season)and are a great help if any problems arise with the steam loco. Most Diesels used are interesting machines in their own right too, with most of then now over 50 years old, some even 60 years old now.
