Of course I have it was wet and the over head lines crackled in the moisture. But that doesnt give you the same feeling of power which you would get controlling a full size electric loco. Sitting behind a class 47 pulling 2 carriages is enough to show you what these beasts can do when opened up - just staggering amounts of grunt, without the choking clag of steam coal or diesel. I'm not a fan of breathing any of that either! Yuk.
