I'm pretty sure the GCR trains are fitted.Slate gravity train:
At 07.45ish the take-up of coupling slack is interesting and demands some care - no doubt a fair bit of damage could be caused by a heavy hand on the regulator!
Having never seen the sight of a long unfitted std gauge freight being ‘lifted’ I guess the same applied?
One reads the odd tale of guards occasionally being roughed up when caught unawares!
Is the demo freight service on the GCR fitted or unfitted?
