Great pics, thanks for sharing. Not sure we are watching 'zero carbon' in action but the BUFF wouldn't be a BUFF unless it was coal burning....
Wikipedia MITO shots look identical!

Great shots there, the last one is a similar shot of 4 x Vulcans taking off many years ago.

A lovely treat to see these.
They must carry lots of sacks of coal to keep them so smokey...
