Thank you!.

Thank you 👍.

It sure was thanks for coming.

LSL’s 47712 and DBSO will be coming to Leven this year along with the class 50 railtour that’s what’s planned for Leven at the moment unsure if steam or that will come down this year.

@buses4182 ohh, a class 50 as well! Great

@@jimmystransportmarvels8815I think it could be two class 50’s.

There might be a chance if WCRC get an exemption but there might be a plan for WCRC to run the services for free.

Thank you 👍.

Thanks for letting me know I’ll get that changed.

Thanks very much. You were able to hear them from about 2 miles away.

Thank you 👍.

No worries glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you.

Thank you for the reply hope you’re enjoying the videos.

@@buses4182 Yes and I’ve subscribed as it’s so different where you are. I’m just outside Manchester so I appreciate we get more workings but I do like a good view! Pa

@@pauljones401thanks for subscribing we get some good move ip here mostly freight or railtours we also have a few good heritage railways up here as well.

@@buses4182 it’s just different so I’ll keep an eye out. Paul

Not a lot are fitted with pre-heating.

It is idling, but hunting badly around idle RPMs. Class 37s always hunt a bit at low loads, but it is especially bad when the oil is cold as the governor runs on oil.

170s will be on the line aswell when it opens it’s just the driver training will be 158s

I spend night from 10pm till 1am chasing it twice at Cameron bridge as it was down the road from my house and at cardenden.

Thank you 👍

Thank you 👍.

And the campaign group who fought hard to get it built.

ABSOLUTELY 👍

Thank you and the tracks in the middle are rails that reinforce the curve.

@buses4182 hmm interesting thanks.

@@jimmystransportmarvels8815no problem 👍.

These are known as guard rails, they are used in tight curves and other areas to minimise the damage of a derailment in areas of particular risk, such as bridges, and tight curves, near level crossings and stations.

From sources I’ve heard the class 20 will be doing the fife circle too.

@@buses4182 I’ve not heard anything about that. When they were planning the move up to Edinburgh last night they nearly just sent both 20s up to run the train after an issue with the 40 came up, but managed to resolve the issue so the original plan prevailed

@@aarphotos5I was happy to see the class 40 would have been good if the 20 went too but can’t complain as it was a really good day chasing it yesterday.

I was rather impressed by how well the event was run no problems what so ever luckily I had the car to get some footage of the flying Scotsman out with the stations.

@@buses4182 it was definitely a good show

The west coast railways Maroon suits them as well.

Couldn't agree more 😊😊

Yea I remember you it was nice speaking to you on the Sunday on the trip go Dunfermline I have subscribed to your channel.

@@buses4182cheers my man, appreciate it 😁😁😁

And I was the lucky one that pressed the start button and drove you to Dunfermline and back!! 🤩🥳

Thank you.

First passenger trains should be April/ may 2024 with ScotRail drivers route learning January/February time.

Sorry for the late reply it’s the fife Heritage railway land in the woods Sadly all fenced off now.

I've seen a similar machine to the one shown here, but instead of having the ability to spread out the sleepers before laying them in place, it just put them them all down as a batch, closely spaced, then picked up nos 2, 4 and 6 again, reversed a bit and then set them down in the right place to leave a perfectly spaced batch.

Very slow speed....

The train is able to run at 5 MPH all the way from Thornton to Leven.

@@buses4182 was gonna say it looked walking pace near enough tbh.
