Great footage of steam, was 1709 doing load trials because either she worked hard or the crew on 2705 just enjoying themselves listening to 1709 doing it all. 3112 and 3526 they worked together very well.
Those engines are so beautiful to watch and no computers to design & manufacture them, the engineers in those days were perfectionists. The only steam engine that I rode on the footplate was from Geelong Loco to Ballarat and that was a J Class back in the early 70's. I watch all you footage Bevin keep up the great work
