An uneducated buffoon tries to rate steam locomotives by their performance despite not ever having set foot on their footplates. All opinions are my own and I've tried to correct mistakes I made while recording as much as possible. Time to upset some Great Western fans!

Sadly no subtitles for this one, that's too much dead air to subtitle.

All images used of the locomotives are subject to creative commons.
