Sutherland Steam Railway Winter Steam Gala 2010 Part B

Hi all, Here is PART TWO of TWO of the video documenting the Sutherland Steam Railway’s fantastic 2010 WINTER STEAM GALA which ran from February 19th-21st. The gala ran 3 weeks late due to the seriously bad weather experienced over the last few weeks. (Points had been frozen, rails had been buried, wires had been damaged etc). So finally, on Friday 19th February, the first day of the 3-day event was filmed, resulting in these two videos.
