    I would agree with this but with the substitution of "most lines" for "any line". Several years ago I crewed on a quarry Hunslet visiting a number of lines including the F.R. and the L.B.N.G.R. She was "thumped" very hard indeed at times both in terms of haulage and speed but there was no suspicion of hot bearings. Nothing broke either!
