Описание к видео 6024 King Edward 1 Struggles up to Ais Gill with the CME 14/03/1998

Another Golden Oldie from my archives, and this time we see Collett 4-6-0 King Class 6024 King Edward 1 ( Not Churchward as shown in the Title ) as it struggles up to Ais Gill Summit with 13 coaches on a very windy 14th March 1998. These locos were built at Swindon to run on best Welsh Steam Coal, and obviously despite having the power to do so, the loco is definitely struggling with it's train. After a water stop at Garsdale, it makes a spirited departure as it heads Southwards .
This footage was captured on Standard VHS tape, so the quality is nowhere near what we have come to expect today, however, I hope the sounds and the content are worth it.
