Bloody marvellous video Will. Richard is a fountain of knowledge and a pleasure to listen to. I really need to visit again soon and look forward to enjoying the company of team Watercress.

Also, the amount of effort it took to build one of these is incredible. Hats off to those men

What a great video. Superbly presented by Richard everything very clearly explained. Very interesting to get into the heart of the engine and also to understand the interlocking on the cab controls. Well done!!<br><br>Good luck from Spain!!

Worked that loco when in the RES link at Cambridge. Movie brought back a lot of memories.

As a Shunter, I worked with many of these 47s, the early ones with Steam heat, then ETH, Vacuum pipes plus main air and auxiliary. Enjoyed my time on BR.

Did my apprenticeship on these locos in the 80s, and personally I rate them as one of the greatest locos ever designed and built.
