Is the gradient of the Trackage known?

At this point, I'm afraid I don't know, no.

Ever since I was a kid I LOVED those old, small, little Trains. For a time I had a fascination with the trains on the "Island of Man" and the such.

Another beautiful shot! Instant Fav!

Good bloody gawd that's familiar; I remember a programme from years and years ago (possibly The Train Now Departing) which was broadcast from the IoMR, and included a shot eerily similar to this one of, I think, this very engine trundling cheerily towards the camera.

You're not wrong, and that's what inspired me to take this one
Incidentally, the driver in that film (Kevin Lewin) is driving here too.
