I caught that tour myself at stoke works junction and it’s abit rare to have the Shakespeare express to ever come through Barnt green normally they start at snow hill
Great video mate and good to see you at the incline, was not surprised after staying the night before for the class 50's for you to be there already at that early hour of the morning 😂 also i absolutely love the shots taken at my local stations ❤
Had my son not decided to wake the house up at 4am I would’ve arrived a lot later. Surprised there was only around 20 on us at Vigo. Was expecting a lot more as the lighting in the morning is better
I gather you and Liam were a 'team' today Luke Lol. I think everyone had a busy day. I started at Barnt Green but after that I was totally alone (apart from some cows) for the rest of my shots. Regards, Brian.
I wasn’t sure if Liam was able to make it or not but glad he eventually made it to the lickey in time. After that we more or less winged it. I’ll give your video a watch
John I wasn’t planning on leaving the house until half 6 but my son decided to recite nursery rhymes at 4am meaning I woke up early. Was glad to get Some food after widney manor
It’s been a couple of years now. Network rail did some work on Old Hill tunnel a couple of years ago and I heard from a friend that the castles were now out of gauge going up old hill. I learnt Friday that the platforms mentioned in the description were prohibited, not the tunnel.
Superb clips there, nice to see. I wasnt aware of so many platform prohibitions for the class, would you know if they are permanent or just a temporary measure please?
Beautiful shots. Sorry, don't want to play devil's advocate here but it seems that train/support crew are allowed to have their head out of the window (see first coach going up the Lickey) but punters aren't and get vilified on trips now for even standing in a vestibule! Makes my p**s boil
Lovely ex GWR castle
Spot on Luke, nicely captured and a great sound from the Castle, cheers 👍
Impressive footage and you were very lucky not to be bowled from that position on the Lickey. Well done
Great video 😊 many thanks!

Why the castles prohibited from those platforms then ? Cracking fulm

Was the Brush 4 helping out?it sounded like it coming up Lickey Bank.
It was giving a push. Both locos were working hard
Superb clips there, nice to see. I wasnt aware of so many platform prohibitions for the class, would you know if they are permanent or just a temporary measure please?
It’s been a few years since we had a castle go up old hill now so I’m guessing it’s permanent? I’d love to be wrong though.
