While it's 7 minutes long, and worth watching every minutes (some great pacing shots), the first 90 seconds says it all!
What a shame this engine is now sidelined, and essentially rusting away. I don't even know who owns it now. I do know it needs major restoration again, and is out of certification. It can no longer be steamed.
