    Great footage again Phil. For me the black 5s are the perfect default steam loco, go anywhere do anything, and you've really captured the spirit of the machine. Great stuff.👍👍

    That takes me back to 1963 . My first firing turn on a Class 5 on ECs from Euston - Willesden Carriage Sdgs. Weaned on steam which is still in my blood.

    The engine is a he. On a few of my old videos, there is a shot of a GWR steam engine running light engine on the main line without a support coach. To see the Black 5 do the same thing all these years later isn't uncommon. True, it doesn't occur as much, but seeing Mr. Jack of all Trades without coaches must have put a big smile on your face.

      That's debatable lol. To be truthful she/ he is an it.
      Certainly looks better than having just one coach.

    It makes a refreshing change...If 45110 makes it back to the mainline, after major overhaul, then its first trip should be to Holyhead (6J territory) where it spent almost all its life... 🙂
