Think the humour in my OP might have gone over your head somewhat, In any case, I don't recall giving much credit to this story myself anywhere ?.
Don't you know a copper cap chimney is worth an extra 20MPH, amatuer! :P
Shame about the 68 on the back, otherwise a scene straight out the 70's with a blue loco on a full blue/grey Mk1/2 rake.
Panniers come with limitations y'know, That being around 30 miles water range as well as 45MPH. Not really a surprise a Large Prairie is being...
Who doubts that ton by 4472 then ?, I don't think there's any doubt there, The question is whether it was the first or not.
Funnily enough my first though was how long would it take a light engine to pull up from 130MPH!. I've no doubt the ton was possible with a light...

Oh right, Bit beyond my capabilities I'm afraid.
It's a hypothetical poll on an internet forum that has no actual bearing on events, Don't over think it guys.
An Easter break in the highlands coincided with 46512 being in operation, Can't ever think how that happened ;) :...

Could just be as simple as 100MPH warp speed isn't required Southbound for a decent path at that time.
Yes, we go on about how many Victorian/Edwardian 4-4-0's there are/were in the national collection in particular, And how many of them work ?,...
Neither was Duke of Gloucester in BR days, Perhaps that can be addressed ?.
