    Fantastic footage from Shap Phil. The weather could not have been more perfect for the shot.

    Great shots Phil, I believe that the sun went in a few minutes after they went through so you were very fortunate this time.

    SUPERB! What a way to start the mainline year - fingers crossed for a safe return over the S&C.

    Nice one Phil,fantastic shot!

    In some ways sad I missed it although in others I'm not too fussed,at least we've got other weeks to have a go (no doubt in the rain).

    Yes brilliant. Two Class 5's plus the equiv of about 16 behind. Some load but Riley's locos are probably the ones best up for it.

    I have to ask (and not being argumentative) but why would they be any better for the job than say 45231 and 44932 for instance?
