Can’t say I like staff bellowing about the yellow line. Let’s hope it doesn’t spread throughout preservation.
Yes I know what you mean!! If only people had the sense and didn't need telling though 🤔
What a brilliant gala it was, great selection of visitors and an in-form home fleet. The loco that really stood out to me was the Hymek, she was much louder than I expected.
Certainly was! Yes I love the Hymeks too.
Gotta love the noise the deltic engine makes.
@@chrisplace9773 me too. Would have been great if there was a deltic here as well
I was there today with my daughter, brilliant show of diesels, the noise going through the tunnels was just something else!!!
A great day , glad you both enjoyed it. They do tend to put the power on in the tunnels, for better sound😀
Seeing the variety of locos here takes me back to the days when I used to go spotting them and there was so many all over the country. Not so great now!
@@soulman3590 yes, me too
@philclarke3203 rubbish now isn't it? I drove slammers for a living and in 2005 they faded them.out for 444's and 450's. It killed the passion for me. I did find it a bit sad tho when I read yesterday that the 70's are stored at Toton and have been for 10 years. I actually quite like those for modern locos.
@@soulman3590 yes , not much interesting in the modern trains, units especially!
Not just sad but ridiculous that these newish locos are in store.
Luckily we still have some heritage traction on the mainline, thanks to the chairman of a certain company! Check out the video I have just uploaded from this morning. th-cam.com/video/Qa4HkzTNuxs/w-d-xo.html
Great video phil. Miss the days when these classic locomotives used to pass our homes across the chiltern line back in the 70’s & 80s.
@@Ashfaq1999 thanks. Yes, great days and variety of locos. Not the same anymore.
@@philclarke3203Agree. Thank goodness for train gala’s 😊
Good video, I was supposed to be there but had a new hip fitted last week, hopefully I'll make the next one. It's nice seeing what I missed 😂.
Thanks. Hope all goes well and you can enjoy it even better next year 👍
Is it true the 37s are nicknamed whistler's. I heard that somewhere. Might be wrong
Great Video of Classic BR Locomotives made back in the 50s and 60s era 💞💗 Beautiful sounds also 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@stephenpowell5912 many thanks. Yes, great locos from a great era 😀👍
Fantastic day for the poms love the 37s and Hymek
It was like watching an exhibition Display Layout
From the land Down under
It was. Thanks for watching and commenting
Nicely put together Phil. Great locos.👍👍
Thanks David.👍 I fell asleep editing it last night 😴. Long day 😂
Absolutely brilliant 👍👍👍👍
Thanks Barrie,👍👍
Splendid stuff, cheers Phil! As a Geordie, I never got to see the Westerns, Hymeks and Warships in service so I'm especially grateful to the volunteers who keep these beasts alive.
Thanks. We are so lucky that so many have been saved. The volunteers to a great job
So sad that Ark Royal wasn't saved though, I was going through old pics recently and (re)discovered I'd taken pics of it at Barry Island. No memory of that at all.
I caught the 50 pairing going to Penzance on a pathfinder tour earlier today
Great stuff Scott. Double headed, how I remember them through Hartford on the wcml
@@philclarke3203yes Phil but sadly it’s the last one because 50007 looked like it’s painting is fallen off
Great video Phil. Action all the time. I have never seen it so busy on a Friday before, especially on the class 20 standing room only, glad for the railway so many went. After our brief Hi I did not see you again.
Thanks Colin. It was busy. I was on the first 37 heading back to Bury. At Ramsbottom everyone got off the passing train on to it too. Sorry I didn't get to see you again
@@philclarke3203 I have never seen it so busy on a Friday before, glad for the railway. Saturday was very busy as expected as well. My train there was about 20 late due to being diverted via Wakefield otherwise I would of caught the train you were on.
I was there this day. Hydraulics on top form again. 40 was nice too
I love the hydraulics, be great when Western Prince is back 😀
Great video Phil! Remarkably similar to mine, think I was even on yours for a few seconds! 🤣🤣
Thanks.👍 I think I remember you now 😀, always good to put a face to a name. Just watched yours, and I was on yours too 😀
@@philclarke3203 absolutely! Will say hello next time!!
29:25 I believe this is the first east Lancashire visit by a class 70 after it made its debut visit during the Severn valley railway diesel gala
i presume a class70 diesel as the class 70 electric locos are no more.!
I've not heard of any more, so could well be.
@@petersmith4455yes diesel. A long while since the original, electric, class 70s were scrapped
@@philclarke3203yes because I saw one freightliner 70 loco myself and it’s my first time seeing the 70 loco to ever try the Severn valley railway line
@@philclarke3203yeah Phil
Brilliant video mate I love bury Bolton Street thanks
Thanks Martin. Me too 😀
Brilliant absolutely brilliant.
@@boulecoq1700 thanks 👍 😀
Fantastic time on Saturday as part of a stag weekend! Even managed Heat Park Tramway on the Sunday!
@@rswindsor-bell5589 great weekend for you 😀. I went to Heaton park tramway a couple of weeks ago 👍
Great video Phil plenty of action.
Thanks Rick, there was 😀👍
Superb video and music to my ears!
Thanks 👍😀
Great stuff Phil
@@stestepney thanks Steve 👍
Worth it for the Hymek alone.
@@timwilks666 definitely 😀
Was the loco shed accessible?
@@markknight1011 no, it never is at gala s
Was that Boris Johnson driving the class 20 LOL
