Stanier 8F Sustains 32mph Over Ais Gill With 13 On

David Smith's ex-LMS 8F 48151 strides confidently over Ais Gill with 13 on, unassisted. The summit speed was calculated to be 32 mph, and I think the driver was Steve Chipperfield (if you can confirm, and/or know who the fireman was, please let me know). Footage from two southbound Dalesman workings in similar conditions, of 13 & 27 June 2017. Many thanks to my father, Peter Ainsworth, for the Angerholme and summit shots (his Flickr site is here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/peterai.... The Angerholme shot is from 13/6/17, the rest is from 27/6/17.
