Nicely captured in a less than ideal day Nige, infact it wasn't fit to be out but did get a bit better for Tangmere, very nice and great to see it back out on the mainline, cheers . 😉
Thanks David, not ideal conditions but it’s steam and another spot where the lineside vegetation is taking over, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you, cheers nige🎄
Thanks for this capture Nige in unpleasant looking conditions. Glad they've got Tangmere in quick time back even if a bit more fettleing is needed. Fingers crossed for tomorrows trip. Take care - Chris
Thanks Chris, yes a lousy day alright as everything was soaked but still it was worth it to see Tangmere returning to service after a short while out, cheers nige🎄
Thanks Alistair, just one of those days unfortunately the rain direction was catching the lens apart from the opening shot which, all the very best to you and your family Alistair wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, nige🎄
Well done Nige you dont miss a trick.Great action shot on a grim day, lets hope that Tangmere performs ok on the trip to Edinburgh. Thanks for the bonus and all the best. 🎅🍷Brian
Many thanks Brian, it was always worth chancing it that the forecast could be wrong but not this time unfortunately, a cautious climb over the ski jump on wet rails but seems to be doing ok on the charter, all the best Brian and maybe we’ll bump into each other next year, nige🎄🎅🏻🚂
Many thanks Allan, look forward to watching your footage and hope you have some better weather conditions, best wishes for Christmas and the New Year, nige🎄
Thanks Steve, one of those days as you can’t control the weather, thought it worth a look but even with the leaf fall still an obstructed view down the line, cheers🎄
A very nice video nige well done great camera work as usual I am really looking forward to seeing your next video I hope you get a nice video next time also when is your next video going to be on TH-cam bye for now Philip
Many thanks Philip and much appreciated as always, not sure when the next one will be so best wishes to you and your family for Christmas and hope you get some lovely presents as well, nige🎄
Keep an eye out on RTT for 45407 tomorrow coming From Joppa straight (Edinburgh) to Carnforth steamtown I can't because I'm recovering from a chest infection at Hospital in Preston best wishes Philip xx
@ Thanks for the update Philip, very sorry to hear that you are in Hospital at the moment and hope you are on the mend and that you be able to get home for Christmas Day 🤔 very best wishes, nige 🎄🎅🏻🎄
Thanks for your best wishes me,mummy and daddy hope you have a wonderful Christmas and best wishes for 2025 Ps I am looking forward to seeing your mainline review 2024 video best wishes Philip xx
Thanks Austin, It’s been a while since everything got soaked and just to rub it in it brightened up after Tangmere had passed by ☹️ best wishes to you and Pam so hope you have a lovely Christmas and New Year, cheers nige🎄
Well hello there Nige, thought steamers had finished for the season? 🤔 OK, Ol' 'Tangmere' does sound very 'weak' and offbeat and that 'buzz box' has come in useful eh? Not my favourite engines as you know, I suppose all the 'good stuff' is elsewhere or in the 'shops'. Thanks again Nige, and this is a good time to wish you a very Merry Christmas, thanks for all your excellent videos during 2024. Heres to next year, and quite simply just keep 'em coming. All the very best. 🎄😉👌👍
Hi George, just the odd ones now but mainly out of our area, first time out for Tangmere since her cylinder repair so taking it easy on that section and insurance on the rear as well as heating on tomorrows charter, the Black 5s are on Polar Express duty in Edinburgh, Wensleydale and London at present, best wishes to you and yours George Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, kind regards nige🎄🚂🚂🚂🎄
Nice Footage there Nige. It's good to see Tangmere back up and running again, I hope she leading this Sundays ECS move rather having a diesel on the front?
Thanks Andrew, hopefully everything goes ok on the Edinburgh run and you get your wish on Sunday, hope you have a great Christmas and New Year, cheers🎄
The crew would have well aware to take it easy to begin with what was ostensibly an ECS move which in practice was also a loaded test run after the locos repair. Its possible that the run to Edinburgh the next day was the first trip north of the border to be made by the loco and only the second visit to Scotland made by a spam can since 34004 Yeovil in 1948 during the loco exchange trials? 👍
Thanks Stephen, on wet rails climbing out of Carnforth and yes a stock move and loaded test all in one and I think you are right on reading somewhere else it being the first trip north of the border and second time for a spam can, best wishes for the festive season Stephen, cheers nige🎄

Thanks Steve, far from ideal conditions but good to see Tangmere returning after repairs, cheers🎄
Good captures Nige, good to see some steam going. Yes getting very overgrown now.👍
Thanks David, not ideal conditions but it’s steam and another spot where the lineside vegetation is taking over, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you, cheers nige🎄

Now you did brave the elemants to get this video, thanks for sharing. Hope you and your family have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year.

I was surprised to see Tangmere passing Raolcam York yesterday. Good to see the repair did not take too long.
Thanks Cedarcam, yes turned her round pretty quickly considering, seasons greetings to you, cheers nige🎄
@@nige7577 She does have a problem though Should of run from NRM today and still not set off yet. The working was cancelled and now reinstated.
Best wishes to you for 2025 and have a great Christmas
@ Yes I noticed that, I was going to go to Giggleswick Bank but will probably be dark when she passes there and it’s blowing a gale at present.
Excellent video of Tangmere in the challenging conditions Nige. Hoping to see her on the tour tomorrow. Cheers - Allan. 🙂
Many thanks Allan, look forward to watching your footage and hope you have some better weather conditions, best wishes for Christmas and the New Year, nige🎄
Nice video sequence. Hope youve dried out.
All the best for Xmas
Thanks Idris, yes everything’s dry now and no camera damage which is the main thing, best wishes to you too and hope you gave a good one, nige🎄
Wonderful video - worth the suffering of photographer 9and loco, by the look of things). Thank you - and have a good Christmas!
Many thanks for your lovely comment Robert, unfortunately we can’t pick the weather, best wishes for Christmas and the New Year, nige🎄

@@nige7577 Merry Christmas and Happy New year to you Nige. Might see you around in the near future hopefully on the S & C?
Now then Nige. Do you if Tangmere is Definitely leading the ECS working or the diesel is on the front of Tangmere?
@@lnerrules-iw6ry Not heard anything yet Andrew
Now due to leave York after 2pm still don’t know if it will be on the front Andrew
The Exhaust beat sounds diseinctly odd not its usual bark at all is the timing off??
Yep,WCR can't set it up right,its all over the place
Couldn’t say Laurence as I’m not an expert on theses things, cheers 🎄

Im no expert on steam loco's. But tangmere does not sound right.
Its because WCR don't have a clue on how to set it up properly,why they don't get advice from Rileys or Southern Locomotives beats me!
Me neither Russ so will leave that to the experts, it was her first run out since the cylinder repair, cheers🎄
