    Its always a thrill climbing the Lickey Incline.. going round the curve through Bromsgrove Station and seeing the bank dead straight ahead for a couple of miles.. I was on board the East Lancs Stalwart on the 7 June and heres a video of the climb from bottom to top..57315 was on the back but I have been informed it did not push at all, by the slow speed we slogged up the climb if it did push it wasnt helping much ..345 did all the work in fine style...

    I know one other poster on here was at Vigo... Gotcha BillR!!!
