Hats off to the original surveyors who could plot out such an incline. Lovely video.

Had to look up where on earth "Tumulla Bank" was! Got it mate....not far from Sydney, down under. Greetings from near Atlantic City, New Jersey in the US of A. Fine looking locomotive you have there. A great restoration job on #6029. Well done!

She is a grand locomotive to say the least, granted I have to admit, the videos I took does not do the shear noise this thing creates any form of justice.

Saw this loco in Canberra back in about 2,000 and thought to myself you are absolutely beautiful, but I doubt you'll ever be in steam again . Well , she's back in no uncertain terms . Hope to see her in steam someday . 😊

We ent up the bank three days ago in the XPT- not nearly as much fun as a steam train. There is a good video of The Flying Scotsman and 3801 doing the climb on a frosty morning in the 1980s (without a diesel tacked on).

DIESEL DEAD ENGINE IN RESERVE in case of breakdown on the main west line. Reasonable rules. This is in Australia west of Sydney nearing Bathurst Im thinking.

Has the locomotive been converted to oil fired or is it extra water in the tanker on the rear of the engine? Just spotted Esso on the back of the tanker so is it oil?

No she's still a coal burner, the tank behind her is an ex fuel tanker converted to carry water for the loco.

You're right. It seems to be smoking even more than the steam engine. This was always a trait I noticed with NSW diesels.

Not far wrong, the North Yorkshire railway actually aren't allowed to run steam trains during the summer months because of the risk of setting the moors on fire.

Generally we run our steam locomotives on the mainline during the winter months to reduce the risk of lineside fires, despite how dry the grass looks, it's really not & trust me, I spent a lot of time in that grass during the weekeend. lol
