    Running with only 10 up that, imo, would have been within the scope of one Class 5 but you do have Martin Mill to contend with so we shouldn't blame WCRC for not taking chances.

    The 1 in 60 grade on Bearsted Bank would make it cough a bit as well.

    Listening to the video, is it the 47 with a bad wheel flat? or something else?

    Hope any pax in the back coach got a refund. Not from the diesel purr, I could live with that, but that incessant clatter from the wheel flat! The 5 looked good. Thanks for the video.
