So the Disco is about as powerful as Geoff Capes then....

Sorry to be a pedant ....................
I always thought that a train is a combination of locomotive and carriages/ freight cars........ That shows the DS pulling the carriages (considerably lighter than the locomotive) and not the entire train - I suspect that the DS might struggle to pull the 100+ tonnes of locomotive plus 100 tonnes of carriages .............. DS makes a fine locomotive but I bet the ride was a bit bumpy going over the sleepers

Noted that they used one with an auto 'box, otherwise we could have smelt the burning clutch over here in the UK.
