Neglected and scruffy, yet these fantastic 9f locomotives were still slogging away, they were withdrawn years before their time, typical governmental waste of taxpayers money.

I enjoy the contrasting sounds of the 9f and the diesel banker.

Always surprises me how stinking puny European trains are compared to the USA, Australia, or Brazil for instance. I suppose that’s the weakness of using chain links instead of couplers.

No, it's just the loading gauge is more restricted, so less room under bridges ect. Because of the smaller trains that we started with

The Island we sit on is a mere 603 miles tip to tip. The places you mention are a little larger, not to mention the loading gauge restriction imposed from the very beginning using what was effectively, carts on rails. Just be grateful we invented railways.

That was rather nice. Poor old 9Fs leaking steam from everywhere they shouldn’t!

2:18 The steam loco was so weak, a diesel had to push the train up the hill. No wonder these polluting steam locos were chopped up, and the scrap recycled to make more modern traction.
