The GWR mainline in Cornwall doesnt have the notoriety of its neighbour Devon for its long challenging climbs.
However the climb from St Germans to Liskeard and Par to Lostwithiel provided a stern test for the class 37s with a loaded train of CDAs.
The long climb from Par to St Austell (where you can see the gradient chage at 1:45) provided a similar test often with double length empities.
