D213 Andania Thunders over Shap on the Whistling Highlander 24/2/24.

D213 Andania ( 40013 ) was at the helm of the Whistling Highlander tour from Crewe to Inverness . We see at Salterwath in overcast conditions. Apologies for the camera shake in the 1st clip as the palisade fence shook the camera .

Hi There it is Mr Cannadine T. Boxill-Harris, I have another interesting idea for most of you Class 313, Class 314 and that also is including those interesting Class 315 Fans out there, rather than scrapping most of those Class 313's Class 314's including the Class 315's maybe you guys can convert them and including the refurbishment into those Volvo B10M Engine, Scania N112 Engine, Leyland 680 Engine, Cummins M11 Engine, Gardner LG1200 Engine, Gardner 6LXB Engine, Gardner 8LXB Engine, Class 313's, Class 314's and the Class 315's and convert all of them into a 2 Carriages and Three Carriages of the Class 313's, Class 314's and that is including those Class 315's for most of us Class 314's and the Class 315's Diesel Train Fans Pretty Please? Are you still going to do this interesting type of Project for all of us out there PLEASE.

The Brush didn't sound as if it was assisting very much if at all, so that's equivalent to about load 15, which must be rather like what it would have been like when they were expected to take the place of Duchesses on 15 and 16 coach loads in the early 60s

Thanks Andrei , my mate said the same about the brush so impressive I thought.

Probably one of my favourite locomotives, that sound is pure British rail.
