Nice video mate : ) Great to see the Class 50 in action along with the other two on-loan locomotives in action. This weekend coming is their Summer Steam Festival with four steam locomotives and thirteen road steam engines, are you thinking of going to event?

Thanks Joe. I won't be attending the Summer Steam Festival, I should be at the Mid Hants Railway for the Summer Gala.

What was the 31 needed for? It didn't seem to be contributing much. Was it like a brake adapter or something?

Because the headshunt at Tunbridge Wells West is too short for a 50, and there's a lack of a headshunt at Eridge, the 31 was used to pull / propel the train into the two stations. The 50 would be uncoupled outside the station, and would couple up at the other end when the train arrived in the station. Apart from that, it was just idling. Added an extra 107 tons to the weight of the train, so the 50 would have to work harder on the gradients!
