One of the best sights you could wish to see...

A Gresley A4 pacific, in full flight.
Sister engine to Mallard, the fastest steam engine ever, 60007, "Union Of South Africa", enters Pewsey Station, on a mainline excursion from London to Bristol and return. A round trip of around 220 miles.
The engine was travelling at close to 70 mph. Just awesome.
