If you are not familiar with the Settle Carlisle line may I just tell you that the summit of the line is at Ais Gill. The climb in both directions requires a little effort from the loco in either direction.
Now if anyone can reproduce a scene like this they will have made a middle aged man happy.!

This is one of the better quality videos on Youtube!
And here is another with a different viewpoint at Ais Gill

ps I don't often follow links posted to videos, but I really recommend that you at least look at the first, and I apologise for plugging a loco that I am involved with.
(It looks like these trains will be running again next year, hope to meet some of you!)
