Morning passenger
Morning northbound passenger service charging the 1 in 30 gradient of Nancha bank. This was the only train that I saw on this line without a banker. With 11 coaches behind, QJ 2823 slipped almost to a stand on the final ascent, but superb driving saw the train successfully cross the summit at walking pace.

Another loco failed?

It would have been magic to hear this ascent.
