    Looks to me from RTT as though Bittern climbed Stoke between P'boro and the top at not far off an average of 75. That's pretty impressive, even with 10 on.

    Here's the verdict on that short sprint, I've several of the 92-93 stretch to confirm it was sustained over 90...

    I wonder how many photos will be in the next issues of the Railway mags seeing as the loco is carrying a headboard with one of their competitors on it.

    I do hope there will be some videos from Newark now. A great day for preserved steam in the UK.

    Panic... The fire engine is at the wrong end of the train !!! All the hoses are laid trackside from the entrance parking... Right by the last coach ! The fire engines sprinted up the road... And it's a scramble for hoses !

    A quick glimpse of the problem...
    The hose, the loco and the other end of the train !

    We've just drawn up slightly closer to the bridge..
