    I am very surprised no one has mentioned this or was it posted somewhere obscure?

    Amazing stuff Ploughman, thanks for posting it, all the better for not being staged as part of an event. I love the way the 44932 crew responded to being overtaken :) :whip:

    Hmmmm...... now 'engine & van' movements are limited to 50mph so they must have put the brake in on the 'Brit', no? :whistle:

    do two coaches not constitute a train ? in which case the 5 could do 60... ?
    Fabulous bit of film, pity no one on the 5 had a video...

    How easy would it be to have arranged two 'closely matched' trains (on different tours) departing york at the same time ?.... dosnt bear thinking about

    I think you'll find that Light Engine moves with support coach are now permitted to run at 60 mph,

    Yes. The Black 5 crew deserve a standing ovation for doing what they did there.

    And that lineside sequence. Talk about right place, right time!

    I still have the original video of this, bought at the time. If I remember correctly I had to pre-order it at one of the many events going on the late 80's.
    Shame 34092 has virtually disappeared off the face of the planet.

    I believe it was this run that caused a few problems as 34092 reached such a speed that the class 33 couldn't keep up...

    Don't think there were any "problems" as such. I believe Salisbury Area Manager (Gerald Daniels) can be heard requesting the 33 Driver to accelerate further but seem to recall you can't hear clearly the Driver's response - which was, inter alia, that it was doing it's top speed of 85mph already [hauling just the SR General Manager's saloon] and the 33's governor wouldn't allow faster speed!
    City of Wells just purred past so haven't a clue what it's top speed was on that occasion. Impressive! Hope it's back on the main line soon.

    A train is everything forward of the tail lamp, so a light engine constitutes a 'train'.

    The highlight of my year used to be the parallel running on 'Steam on the Met'. I think it used to be the first departures of the day from Harrow on the Hill. One going to Watford and the other to Amersham.
