60009 Union of South Africa doing 100mph
Just a little bit of fun. Did a couple of (rough) calculations and worked out that this is how 60009 Union of South Africa would be like if she was doing 100mph in steam days. The LNER A4 s did reach 100mph in their heydays and although over A4 s did much more than 100 including 60007 (4498) Sir Nigel Gresley and of course 60022 (4468) Mallard, it would have been brilliant to see John Cameron s immaculate A4 achieving that feat. The locations included are here: Hungerford Newton St Loe Eckington and Sapperton I hope you like the video. Feel free to like, comment and subscribe for more steam action from Full Steam Ahead.
