- Coronation Class Duchess of Sutherland put on a great performance on the SWML as she hurried through Brookwood on a pre-Christmas tour to Bristol. Perfect conditions for billowing exhaust.
Beautiful. My first ever proper rail excursion was on the 19th of September 1977, a Waterloo to Newport, Cardiff and Swansea ‘Pleasureseeker’ hauled by 33 023 with a rake of MK1’s, running via Salisbury, Westbury and Bradford-on-Avon. We joined the train at Woking, on a crisp, frosty morning much like this. I remember me and my mates being cosily ensconced in a compartment, and the excitement of venturing to parts of the network I’d only ever seen before in photos, including the Box and Severn tunnels. There was a magic about train travel in this country back then that I think has been lost. Very happy memories, which your clip very much evoked.
So what about 46233? Having to drag the 47 for nearly all the way and 46233's predominantly white exhaust?? How utterly disappointing with your reference to a 'box on wheels' compared to the sheer elegance of one of Stanier's masterpeice's
Thank you. I’m glad this brought back some happy memories for you. There’s nothing like an excursion train for a great day out. I used to go on CAMRA Real Ale Rambles with friends many years ago (I don’t drink beer!). It was a great way to see different places that would have taken for ever by service train. But you really can’t beat a steam hauled excursion, especially when watching from a chilly station! 😊 Hilary
Travelling in a modern DMU or EMU is nothing like as exciting as it used to be in days gone by. Especially in steam days back in the 50s and 60s when nearly all trains had a steam loco up front and most carriages had compartments. You could open the windows and stick your head out in those days too!
This cold weather is providing ideal conditions for steam photography. These are the effects I used to go out for in winter in the 80s and 90s . Great footage 🙂
Thanks Keith. Cold clear weather doesn’t seem to coincide with steam round here very often, so this was a pretty pleasing spectacle, even if my fingers and toes were freezing! 😊 Hilary
Gorgeous video, very artistically shot. Thank you Hils 🤩
Yes, the Duchess was not feeling well that day . Despite the huge exhaust, 6233 was not working very hard and the 47 was doing most of the work. I had the same for my video of it leaving Woking - a bad cyclinder leak I think.
Splendid video😃⤴️⤴️Fantastic steam train and beautiful scenery😉👍️✨
Thank you. I’m glad you like it.😊 Hilary
Fantastic video loved it!!
Thank you, Alan. I’m glad you enjoyed it. 😊 Hilary

Excellent video . . . wonderfully atmospheric! I've loved this loco ever since first seeing her back in the mid 1950s. Very glad I've discovered your channel. Very best wishes fir 2023 . . . from a member of the Guild of Railway Artists.
Thank you, Roger, for your kind comments. I’m so glad you enjoyed it. I was lucky that day with fantastic weather conditions for steam. It doesn’t happen that often! All the best for 2023 😊 Hilary
A brilliant video of her in perfect conditions as well ,she looks and sounds in great fettle!!!!
Absolutely stunning photo of the frost ❄️❤️
Thank you, Jonathan. She certainly was looking and sounding splendid. Worth getting cold for, that’s for sure. 😊 Hilary
@@hilsthetrainlady4683 absolutely!!!! Must have been why your camera was shivering 🤣
Hopefully you didn't get to cold
The engines I grew up with...Euston-Watford-LNW main line. I loved your opening scenes dwelling upon the hoar frost!
Thank you, John. Happy memories! 😊 Hilary
Spectacular!!!!!
Thank you! 😊 Hilary
Very good Hilary , all the best for Christmas and 2023 !
Thank you, Danny. Happy Christmas to you as well 🎄Hilary
@@hilsthetrainlady4683 👍
Brillaint video! I saw her at Bristol Temple Meads.
Thank you. She looked terrific 😊 Hilary
That smoke is amazing. 👍
Cold weather always helps for a great steam display! 😊 Hilary
Great to have the duchess up close to u
It certainly was! 🙂 Hilary
@@hilsthetrainlady4683 yeah Hillary
Wonderful....from a Gresley fan.......!
Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed it 😊 Hilary
Cracking video. Beautifully shot.
Thank you for your lovely comments. I’m glad you enjoyed it. 😊 Hilary
Great capture of a beautiful locomotive in a fantastic location. Make a fantastic photo in a calendar
Thank you for your kind comments, Peter. Conditions were just perfect for such a scene. 😊 Hilary
Great film - the cold air making brilliant shapes from the steam. Wonderful 👍🙂
Thanks, Brian. It really was the most amazing weather for seeing steam. 😊 Hilary
It's not so good for the fingers though; you can't operate a camera wearing thick gloves. Still, one has to suffer for one's art!
mmm great video that was an awesome capture well done .
Thank you for your kind comments. I’m glad you enjoyed it. 😊 Hilary
Splendid as ever Hils.
Thank you, John. You are very kind. 😊Hilary
Hi Hils, Great video and extras....Dave 🚂🚂🚃👍👍☃☃🎄🎄
Hi Dave. Quite a chilly one! 😊 Hilary
@@hilsthetrainlady4683 Hi Hils, Yes I can imagine,Thanks for reply ...Dave.☃⛄🎄🎄🚂🚂🚃👍🤏
My word Hils you really are very good at this game. Another super video. 😊
Thank you, Ian. You are very kind. I was ably helped by great weather conditions on the day. 😊 Hilary
Has war broken out? What a beautiful lady😊💖
She is beautiful. The gun fire is, I believe, from Bisley firing range.😊
Frosty... God bless you. 👍
It was a tad chilly! 😊 Hilary
Lovely shots of a great looking loco😁. Plenty of shooting going on, probably Bisley as the Army ranges will be open to the public on a Saturday. All the best 🙂
Thank you, Roger. It was worth getting numb fingers and toes for this. Duchess was certainly on form. 😊 Hilary
Wonderful video Hilary :)
Thank you Simon. Great weather conditions! 😊 Hilary
Stunning. Beautiful conditions. I take it you filmed this in Ukraine ? That was the battle of Kerson raging in the background ?? :)
Thanks, Phil. Shooting for pleasure vs shooting to survive. We are indeed very lucky to live here. 😊 Hilary
Yea I had to sit here for a moment thinking ‘is he actually going to mention all that gunfire: it’s hardly normal’. Ahhh the thing British don’t comment upon.
Hi Hilary
Great filming.I caught her at Whitchurch she was about 15 mins late due to the Winchfield waterstop taking longer than the time allowed and was going like the clappers trying to make up a bit time.
Hello Michael. You can’t beat a speeding steam train on a frosty day! Glad you got to see her too. 😊Hilary
They never allow enough time at Winchfield. I was there so was able to film both the arrival and departure; if they did it much quicker I wouldn't be able to get shots of both! My video is on my channel if you'd like to have a look, as is the stop at Fleet on the return journey.
It's smokey man!
Perfect conditions! 🙂Hilary
Steam maybe|!
@@46115al Cool man!
My next door neighbour and I went to Winchfield so that we could see her close up during the water stop. But all we saw was steam!! I did a bit better at Fleet on the return journey though. Your shots a Brookwood give more of an impression of power though.
But yours gives a real impression of a giant creature emerging from swirling clouds! 👍
@@hilsthetrainlady4683 As I said, that's the advantage of video over stills!
Great shot! I was on the opposite platform 🙂
Oh sorry, I didn’t see you. You must have been further back along the platform. 😊
@@hilsthetrainlady4683 No worries! I decided on my position last minute due to the bowlage risk! But got lucky 🙂
5.56 or 7.62?
Sounds like November 5th ?
Ha ha - Bisley firing range! 😊
Sounds like it was filmed in Kherson…
Yes, someone else said that. People having fun at Bisley, I believe. 😊 Hilary
My word, that's conditions to die for. Which has always seemed a silly expression to me. Perhaps conditions to kill someone else for 🤫🤔. Was the sound of shots coming from the Bisley rifle range 🔫?
There’s nothing like billowing clouds of steam against a blue sky. I think you are correct about Bisley. I hadn’t appreciated how far the sound would travel from there. 😊 Hilary
That a shoot in the background? Hideous practice. Great video anyway.
It’s the ranges at Bisley, so no animals involved fortunately. Thank you, glad you liked it. 😊 Hilary
What's about pollution?
What about it? Strange comment from a person no doubt with a car typing on a phone/ computer made out of rare metals and plastic.
who cares!
It's mainly water mate. The rest is a bit of smoke from coal with some CO2 which, in the bigger picture, is negligible.
Far less pollution per head than almost any other form of transport.
What indeed about it? Nearly all that is merely steam
