72 m.p.h. on the Cambrian with eleven on.
Got a ticket for speeding.....................':D'
Using BATS coaches as you can see.
I'll put fifteen or so of the WSR Mk1s behind City of Glasgow
later to see if that's where the problem might lay.
That beast will go "over the ton" with anything on and still maintain
250 Lbs/sq. ft. boiler pressure as long as I remember to drop the
scoop in the troughs, as it uses water like it's going out of fashion.':D'

As promised:
Fifteen WSR Mk1s behind "City of Glasgow" running at track speed just before shutting off for Wembley.

So: Can't see a problem with the coaches either.

P.S. Next I'll take twenty over Beattock!!!!!!!!!Maybe?
