Apart from P6 Rovers and all things cycling, I also have an interest in trains, and steam trains especially. I have attached 4 You Tube clips, the first of which is here in New South Wales, about 70km (say 40 miles) from Sydney. The grade is 1 in 33 and the locomotives are former NSWGR 38 class. There were 30 in the class, the first 5 were streamlined. 3801 with a mass of 201 tons and 3830 with a mass of 200 tons represent the first and last of the class.
The next three are equally as good but for different reasons. Be sure to turn your speakers up nice and loud.. I hope you will enjoy.!
