Struggling up the hill at Beare CN 4784, 4134, and 4710 are just now getting a handle on their train. Minutes before it looked like they\'d stall as 4710 was loading at 40amps and the leader was in the short time, however a second trip back by the conductor seemed to do the trick as they told the RTC they were getting 800amps out of her. This would have been to the releif of YB, as the only other option would have been to have 372\'s power cut off at McCowans and pull the stalled 570 back up the hill. 1825hrs.
