Unassisted up Lickey bank on a damp March afternoon in 2007. The noise could be heard from miles away as she approached, and the run up was nothing short of amazing. Storming through a packed Bromsgrove station at speed following a standing start form Stoke Works due to us having to wait for a service train! Dad and I were in the 3rd coach and by the time we got to the top had half of what came out of the chimney either in our hair or our eyes!!!...it was worth it though. Many stood in the fields at the usual photo spots such as Vigo to capture this truly great moment.
