Could someone please show me the true definition of clag please? I've looked through many fotopic sites out of pure interest and the number of photos I've seen which have been labelled as "XXXXX clagging" is interesting to say the least..
According to some people even the smallest wisp of blue exhaust is "clag".. Which of course it is not!
Heres a few examples from my own fotopic site:
http://50149.fotopic.net/p26757712.html - Clag
http://50149.fotopic.net/p26275293.html - Not clag
A few examples from other fotopic sites:
http://60059.fotopic.net/p23823801.html - Definately clag!
http://nicholas3820.photos.us.com/p26813751.html - Definatly NOT clag!!
And please people.. Steam locomotives do not clag!! They smoke.. always have smoked, and always will smoke. Only diesel locos clag..
The reason for this is because too many times I've seen the word CLAG and I've expected to see a pic with a HELLFIREMYLORDZHAULAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! clag-a-thon in it, only to be disappointed by seeing a pic of a 153 coughing its guts up and failing badly in the process :roll:
So then ladles and jellyspoons.. may I have your views on.. what's clag and what isn't?
