Nuns on the pull

Under the headline Nuns on the pull!, The Railway Magazine (May 2011, p 10) shows what appear to be some rather hefty nuns pulling a diesel locomotive, with the caption:
Under the 'do something funny for money' tag, 40 staff from Ryman stationery shops dressed up as nuns and pulled 72-ton Class 20 No. 20059 on the Severn Valley Railway to raise money for Red Nose Day as a 'Nuns on the pull' caper. The Ryman team's target was GBP 10,000 for Comic Relief.
