Another good one, Alrx. Beattock was part of my section when I worked at Lockerbie. Even with diesels, it was a hard slog to Beattock Summit, I remember being at the Summit relay room, we were watching a train on the track circuit diagram. We thought it had broken down as the lights on the diagram were barely moving. Eventually the tank train appeared, it was double headed class 25's. One of them had failed and the other was struggling with the heavy train. That was early 80's. I still like the sound of the Sulzer 6LDA in the type 2's.
