    Many thanks for pointing us to the footage, mike1522, wonderful stuff. Steam is good at anytime, but in the dark it adds that extra dimension. Great takes going full thrutch, doing what she was made for! I take it she was just giving a lift to the paraffin can, helping get it back home? LOL.

    The flags on the front bufferbeam would not be allowed in UK as NR would consider them to be 'out of gauge'!
