Description
November 6th 2021 I was down at the depot for an early start as Julian, Alex and Mike prepared their loco for the final steam run of the 2021 season. All tickets had been sold within 24 hours of posting so we checked the track with a run over to the Island before dropping down to the Waterfront for the first customers. Despite the cold wind I decided to go trackside to capture the loco in action both on the Island and on the approaches to the viaduct that connects to the "mainland". Thanks to Julian, Alex and Mike for their support in making this video
