How beautiful are JA’s?! One of the best looking locos in the world, in my unbiased (😂) opinion. And this is some of the very best kiwi footplate footage I’ve seen. Many thanks mate!
Mate, I'm Impressed!! The crew are doing a spot on job on the footplate, and you can hear the Driver has her in the sweet spot. I fired for an Ex Kiwi Steam Driver the late Ron Harris. I think he was based in Frankton if I remember rightly. He used to tell about these Beautiful Big Engines and the K's and AB's. I learnt a lot from him and miss the old fella and his words of wisdom gained from many years on the footplate. Thanks for Sharing. Loved it.
All those fantastic cab rides as a kid🙏🙏🙏🙏 breaks my heart👍
Great Video, I love JA 1271, thanks for sharing
