Diesel Locomotive Stalls On The UK’s Steepest Railway Gradient: Chasing Trains

Join me as we witness the penultimate move of empty bitumen tanks from Preston Docks to Eastriggs M.O.D. From the winding docks to the steady incline of the Settle and Carlisle Line, possibly the best chase in my books, mainly down to the insanity of being so close to 56049 as it wrestled with adhesion issues coming up the bank. A special thank you to Amy for the expert camera operation and holding on for our tea room break at Carlisle. Camera Operator: Amy Linkin-Chandler Editor: Francis Bourgeois Composer: Godspel.
