Double-Header from The Railway by Hamish Napier

2. DOUBLE-HEADER [H Napier]
The Hiker / The Sojer

A pair of tunes for a pair of steam locomotives. The first is for ‘The Hikers’ of the Highland Railway, the popular ‘Black 5’ (LMS Class 5) which driver Jocky Hay praised as a “damn good engine!” The second is for The Sojer, the Gordon Highlander, the Speyside Line’s most beloved LNER D40. The Strathspey Railway's beautifully restored Ivatt Class 2 locomotive also gets a wee mention, its British Rail train number ‘46512’ is also the chord sequence in the bridge between the two tunes!
