Hi, Welcome to my channel!
I am a Train And Ship enthusiast based in the East Anglian Region, content shown here will be mainly revolved around a mix of Trainspotting and Shipspotting.
I don't really have a certain schedule for video uploads so when I go out to record it will be uploaded at a seemingly random time after I have filmed all footage. Now with the brief introduction out the way i hope you enjoy what is put out onto this channel!
37407 'Blackpool Tower' & 20142 + 20189 take charge on the 'Norwich Cathedral Railtour' 14/12/2024
It was most certainly a very busy day today, joined by many including the famed Francis Bourgeois. Now onto the tour, consisting of one Class 37 and 2 Class 20s (substituting for 37423) made their way from Kings Cross to Norwich to continue a smaller service to Lowestoft and Great Yarmouth.
At Norwich there are some fantastic shots of the 37 starting up and leading the charge out of Norwich!
Enjoy!

Fantastic video mate
Nice one, great video as always
Good video as always!
I appreciate it!
Excellent footage! Especially those 37s at Colchester and th Pullman at Stowmarket!
Thank you!
0:50 🦆🦆🦆
Haha lol
Beautiful sounds to my ears😌🙂↕️
Thank you
Great video 👍 Loved the variety in Tones and Whistles 👍 Great job
I'm glad to hear! Cheers
Some nice tones there! 👍😀👍
Thanks alot👍
@ 👌😀
Great freight vid 👍😀 i have subscribed.
That’s Tremendously Awesome! Happy Weekend!
Cheers
1:12 its me 😁
Haha that's cool😊
It’s a depot horn
Good videos, where was the Top and Tail 66's going?
I'm not completely sure, one was broken down and was probably being bought to a maintenance depot, and the other was just getting a lift back to Ipswich i think
nice!
Cheers
What the hell 😂😅
There is another 43 in October
I have heard, there is also another 2 this month
Nice
👍
I accidentally brought this train 😢 If i didnt buy it i would be able to get the IETs 😭
I'd say the 321 is a much better purchase than the iet
@@GreatEasternMainlineSpotsI prefer IETs
Cracking video mate 👍😃👍
Thanks, I appreciate it 👍
Given the Great Eastern was Britannia’s regular routes under steam - how is this a ‘debut’? 😉🤔
I wasn't talking in general, I was talking in the way that I myself have not seen Britannia before so was a first for me but please any advice is kindly considered if you have any. Thanks for watching
@@GreatEasternMainlineSpots The video is absolutely spot on, can’t fault it - I used to live across the road from a man who a regular fireman on Britannia’s when they were the main ‘express locos’ on the GE, hence my thinking.
@andrewbrown6786 Thanks for the kind comment, that is certainly some interesting information what a pleasure it would have been to work these masterpieces
Does this mean proper engines are coming back to the trains. I remember reading that engineers - in Hungary I think but that might be wrong - were working on making steam engines more environmentally friendly with the aim of replacing diesels with them but can't remember where I read it now. I was hoping they would succeed and it would be great if once again proper engines were back on the railway lines full time. (think they were experimenting with wood pellets or something, certainly it was to do with wood and was the offcuts from saw mills/building trade)
No, It doesn't mean that. This was just a enthusiast rail excursion.
Brilliant catches. Thank you 👍👍👍
Your welcome
Beautiful Machine…probably network rail enforcement.. I don’t like it when they are being pushed by a diesel…
Thanks for the comment, the diesel Locomotive is at the end of the train so it can provide heating and electricity to the coaches also if the steam train breaks down or needs a push up a incline
@@GreatEasternMainlineSpotsAlso, the diesel is needed in case Britannia fails AND in case it goes somewhere without a facility to turn round such as at Norwich Crown Point or Manningtree Triangle
Yes i did mention that the 47 was there for the occasion it breaks down@andrewbrown6786
@@GreatEasternMainlineSpots sorry, I stand corrected on the failure bit. I’ve seen the diesel used to help turn the trains round at Norwich via Crown Point and Trowse Swing Bridge. Also similar to trains that used to start from Manningtree or Ipswich going north. All of a sudden, I’m starting to feel my age 🥴
Nice video, like ! ! !
Thank you
Lol, love how you put briefly, when it actually was sat dtill for nealry and hour
Mmmm scrumptious steam train footage
Fantastic video and what a day to remember 👍❤😁
Yes most certainly, thanks for watching
Absolutely Brilliant 👍😁
Many thanks!
They’re doing a slightly fast Norwich rush hour service in the new June 24 timetable that calls at Stratford non stop to Ipswich stowmarket diss & Norwich
Great video, thanks. The only thing that spoils it are the overgrown trees and bushes, like everywhere else on the network!
Thanks for the comment
Wow! 12 coaches and a 47 on the end, quite a haul...a pity about the selfish numpties at the start and finish of the shots...
Yes definitely impressive but don't really mind the people in the way, unless like the idiots on the 321 farewell
This game should add the class 755
Yes it should
Wow❤❤❤
Is that Colchester?
Yes
Great to see some Steam & Diesel Action on the Channel.
Many more to come next month
Or it could be the Norwich 90
I think they are still doing the Norwich 90 but with class745
The 90 stands for the amount of time it took to complete the journey it does not stand for the class 90 Locomotive @withammodelrailwayclub
@leeanthony2839 the Norwich in 90 was withdrawn with this video being one of the last
tracks look a wee bit overgrown lol
And it's loose
Nice!
Thanks!
I saw that
Magnificent

Great video mate. Enjoyed the afternoon with you! 😉👍❤️
