Well, I went and make a cock-up of the video, but it would have looked like this, but with a lot more coaches..

Might go back later.

No modern high intensity version

I think the original A1s had electric lighting
there is an alternator behind the smoke deflector (see pic above)

I made less of a cock-up on the return run and so there is a video in Gramaisc-O-Vision available here. I like to think that the wind noise adds to the effect and the dog at the beginning seemed to be quite impressed, anyway..

Great footage Gramaisc !!!!

Love the sunlight and the short flyby of ducks somewhere at the middle of the film :)

One mighty steam engine

It took a few attempts to get the Mallard flypast to work and they were a little too high, but it's a while since we've had a Tornado fly around here and it seemed the easy way out. Obviously, I could have used long-tailed tits, but I feared that they would just keep pecking at the lens..

Am alone in being slightly turned on by that?......
