7 locos on the front, struggle over the Liverpool Range at Ardglen, February 2023 with a grain train

The poor old 48 doesn't sound too happy

Great catch Greg! In all my decades of rail fanning..I've never heard a loco with pre-ignition, or what ever the hell is going on with that poor old 48! Last time I was at Ardglen, it was nothing but coal, so not very interesting.
Cheers Gregg.

Must be long and heavy

pumping raw fuel into the exhaust, then burning in the exhaust.

Piss funny

Sounds like one of those locos is starving for fuel

[@terryirons1966]

Old heavy fuel consuming locos ....

They aren't struggling, they aren't even in the short time rating area, old bangers doing it easy
