- Sir Nigel Gresley was the star attraction at the Severn Valley Railway Spring Steam gala and we would be treated to a Black A4 on the Teaks (coaches) This was undoubtedly the highlight of the event and this was done justice given the amount of people that frequented the trains and the masses that soared to the lineside. While the A4 was the Star there was three other guests. There was a Southern S15 in the form of 506, which was courtesy of the Mid Hants Railway. This was backed up by last year's star engine 2999 Lady Of Legend. The new build Saint class returned and would once again put on a good show for all. The fourth guest was Saddle Tank 71516 Welsh Guardsman which was paired with the small home fleet locos for some fantastic double headed thrash. As mentioned above the homefleet are featured though not all.
Filming took place on the Thursday and half a day on Friday. We gave up filming early as we had a two day rover ticket and wanted to sample some of that sorely missed gala action that has been put hold due to the pandemic. The downside to travelling is I can't be at the lineside, so I decided to capture some evening scenes on my Samsung S21 camera phone for my personal enjoyment. These were captured at Bewdley and Arley after we finished travelling, usually I wouldn't dare showcase these as they rarely come out well but after playing them back on the big screen, I was pleasantly surprised at the quality and the lack of shake in the video. While the phone camera audio is generally pretty awful, the magic of the modern day phone camera is rather good and I have included the scenes as an additional optional bonus. So I hope you find them watchable.
I hope you enjoy the action and a huge thanks to the Severn Valley Railway for hosting the event, we had three great days.

I came here on Saturday and I’ve finally got the chance to see sir Nigel gresley and ive also got the chance to ride behind the austerity tank and lady of legend
Absolutely Brilliant good video you filmed that very well, What a good turnout of Trains I Love these old steam trains 👍🏻🇬🇧, only wish I went now ! .
Great job to keep alive these long gone steamers! 🌟🍀👍☀️🌹
Atlas for the S15 it’s the first time ever seeing that loco since I saw a schools loco of repton 5 years ago
Truly outstanding, looked like the Severn Valley Railway put on a truly epic steam gala. Great captures as well of Sir Nigel Gresley which looks stunning on its maiden return to steam. Also, epic footage as well captured on your phone for the end clips :-)
England has a good tradition in preserving her history!
" Sir Nigel" is on my top list! I think She was built in the 30th last century....outstanding piece of engenereeing☀️👏✨💪
Beautifully photographed and the sounds are awesome. Thanks again for another gem.
I was there on the Sunday; got hauled by all the guest locos. A superb gala. Top marks, SVR... and gold star! Excellent footage, and if you hadn't told us, I wouldn't have guessed the station footage was on your phone. The early evening light gave the shots great atmosphere.
So....greetings from Bucharest!✋💫🌟✨
Thanks for visiting
Gresley with the teak coaches looks magnificent 👍
This has to be for me the best SVR video I've yet seen. Most of these vantage points I've never seen or not from anywhere you took them. Thanks for sharing and I'd have definitely bought a ticket behind Sir Nigel, Lady of Legend, and the old Southern mogul. You obviously know this line very well, like Penny Steam knows the K&WVR.
All these engines have class & enduring style! No more for their descendents!
Fantastic footage and very proffesional puts my efforts from Sunday at the SVR to shame. First time I have revisited since the late 70s. Thanks for the treat. Cheers Brian
Cracking footage of a lovely line. I just had Thursday & Friday down there, my first visit. A lovely part of the country, I’ll have to get back as soon as I can.
Another fantastic days photography
SR 506 really sounds Big & Powerful for a little engine ... it's so cool :)
Great video, love the sunset arrival at Bradley, classic! 😃😃😃
Excelent. Very nice video.
Brilliant footage great sunset images
Excellent footage. Brilliant captured. Great coverage. Kind regards C&A
Thanks for an interesting and enjoyable video. Great sound quality, by the way.
Great video👍
This is exactly why I'm subscribed; this is your finest compilation yet! You must hold up a sign that says "Please kindly whistle for my subscribers" because you can't argue with the results! 😃
The " Sir Nigel" type of engine established a speed record of her time on the London - Edinburgh western railway !
Idylic scenaries from a very different reality!
Looks like sir Nigel gresley is looks suitable with the LNER teaks
Why shouldn't it, the Streaks ran with these Teak type coaches in the 1930's and 1940's while operating for the LNER.
@@peterwilliamallen1063 yeah and on this occasion on the seven valley railway this is the first time in decades to see a LNER engine and the LNER teaks together
@@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329 There has been LNER / Eastern Locos visit the SVR more recent than that pulling the Teak Coaches, The Great Eastern Y class engine visited 1 year ago, Flying Scotsman and Tornado visited 5 years ago, Bittern visited 10 years ago and SNG 13 years ago all pulling the Teak Set at some time or other during their visit, plus Tornado is a regular visitor to the SVR
Yeah indeed
Brilliant work as ever, even with just you phones....
My wife and I were at the 2017 NYMR Spring steam festival with both Bittern and Sir Nigel, as well as Brittania. Not having been back on the NYMR since 1979 on a visit to the UK it was amazing. Cannot wait to get back to England to do this on the SVR!
This was the Severn Valley Railway steam Gala not the North York Moors Railway Gala, two different steam Railway's
@@peterwilliamallen1063 Yeah, I know, but giving the info regarding Sir Nigel on a different line, but similar timing. I mentioned both the NYMR and SVR, the latter which I have yet to visit.
It's nice that phone cameras have gotten so good. Yeah, they won't do super-telephoto (yet) as well as a decent 4k camera, but that shot of the tanks heading into the sunset was spectacular.
The section shot with the S 21 looks very good!!
Do you mean the s15?
@@10astudios66 I meant S 21. Check 21:20 of the video.
Still to get the hang of this camera phone thing, eh!
Remember, always film in portrait, when your subject moves so does your phone, up, down anywhere but on your subject, and try not to get things in focus!
Seriously, terrific coverage of all the action.
Thanks a lot!
I came today actually and have got lots of footage to put on both my channels
If A4 Sir Nigel Gresley is in Wartime Black, it should have NE not LNER on the tender.
😊
Honestly I think SNG looks pretty good in LNER Wartime Black
Some really superb footage. I started uploading footage of steam engines a couple of months ago. I live in Kidderminster, can you recommend any good spots to record?
Foley Park/Rifle Range in Bewdley. Hampton Loade and Eardington Bank. Google any image of the stations along the line and that will help. Too many to list here
Many thanks.
@@MarshSteamVideosTM thank you that’s really 👍
Why do some of The Engien hace their original Railway letra like The a4 has The LNER.
A4 looks superb, but the S15 won on sound I think.
No.
@@JD0G69 what do you mean by no? If you're going to reply try elaborating a bit, one word replies are extremely irritating
@@AndreiTupolev No.
@@JD0G69 I think you're just trying to be provocative. I'm just going to delete your replies
@@AndreiTupolev😂😂😂
Splendid stuff! 👍 I was there on Sunday and am still wading through the video footage for editing. I've done some of it though, and it's on my channel if you'd like to have a look.
Sounds great ! I hope you had a good time.
@@MarshSteamVideosTM Certainly did! 😊
