I was on this trip, coach 3. Saw reflection of the flash, and heard the bang, as we enteted New St. Unaware of the incident on Western Suburban until later.
From the videos I have seen, no issues with the gauging of the loco or tender, other than height of coal.
Duchess has been out and about under the wires since, without incident - including the very tight clearance under the valley lines bridge at Cardiff.
I'm confident this is a lesson well learned.
