5043 "Earl of Mount Edgcumbe" climbs to Copy Pit at Portsmouth with "The Red Rose" - 1Z37 07:40 Tyseley to Blackburn. 16/4/2011. I've never seen a steam loco going as fast as this one was on Copy Pit! Unfortunately the sun refused to co-operate for my first-ever steam shot from this position.

45305 climbs to Summit Tunnel past Littleborough with "The Coast To Coast" - 1Z38 06:39 Liverpool Lime Street to Scarborough. 2/7/2011. Unfortunately it was too warm for more than a hint of exhaust to show despite the loco working hard on the climb.
