    Awesome video- I wish youtube hadn't waited a year to show it to me! 428 is a lovely locomotive. No shade on the wonderful Ab class, but I really prefer the square tender to the vanderbilt- just a personal preference. Nice action shots and angles. Thanks for posting this, Tommy!

    Excellent Tommy. All shots on a tripod and no zoom! I detest the missuse and overuse of zooms on many compilations, let the action do the movement. This should be an exmple of how to record trains for everyone. The best compilation of Wellington trains I've seen, congratulations!
