Скачать или смотреть Steam at Speed On The Mainline - Volume 4

It's that time of year before the main steam season begins, so we once again sit back and enjoy a selection of Steam at Speed in the UK. Filmed across the country, 11 locomotives are seen operating up to the maximum allowed for steam '75mph'.

Foot note:
Diesel locomotives "Tail Gunner"
The use of Diesel locomotives on some tours is because of operational reasons. Some of the tours run to destinations with no turning facilities, so the diesel hauls the train to a location where the steam loco can take over again. They are also used for train heating, assistance on steep gradients(especially during leaf fall season)and are a great help if any problems arise with the steam loco.
Most Diesels used are interesting machines in their own right too, with most of then now over 50 years old, some even 60 years old now.
