    Very powerful looking photo however Henry! Does well to demonstrate the noise No. 44932 was making, although Langho I'm sure sounded even louder.

    An alternative view of Ais Gill, with 44932 just catching a patch of light. A very frustrating day, despite the forecast the night before indicating full sun, it was anything but. Usually missed out on the sun by 2 minutes too!

    Thanks for that Mike, she was certainly working well and crested the summit at 36MPH. I just happened to be in the second coach attending to my stewarding duties.:rolleyes:
