I had an argument with an old guy years ago about steam and deisel a modern deisel would pull a lot more loaded clay wagons over the graidients in cornwall than steam would ever do in the end we had to agree to disagree.
Plus in steam days there was always a banker at Plymouth for all up trains over Hemerdon incline as elsewhere in the country, now a class 66 will pull a thousand ton train up the bank.
