    Many thanks Stuart. Much later and the sun would have gone on the southbound leg.

    Especially as it will draw attention to the fact and possibly cause someone to ask for the OTMR to be looked at.

    I can't think that 5690 exceeded 75, not with the professionalism of today's crew, combined with the OTMR equipment. I've haven't seen steam exceeding the line limit on the big railway for years. Still looking for footage of 46229 north of Penrith on its last run to no avail...

    I'm sure 5690 wasn't as fast as that!
    I'd like to see some lineside video of 34092 west of Salisbury in July 88...
