Love the two 2-8-0Ts doubleheading. That's a lot of power there. They managed both "Ilkley Moor baht' At" and "Colonel Bogey" on the whistle too, very impressive. Superb shot of 7827 climbing up to Churston.
Hi there STTW, a great video and perfect takes of the DSR 150 anniversary of Churston to Kingswear. Unknowlingly, I was actually taking a picture of you at Goodrington with my little compact. I was at the top of platform 2 steps, filming the double-header special to Kingswear (I too managed to get the whistle tune). That sunny day I managed to get a few interesting shots along the line, including the freight rake shunting at Churston, but not a patch on your quality though. I will put clips of the Friday and the Saturday up shortly. Dave
Superb work mate, very nice. Love the shots of the double header and of the 25 across the viaduct at 7:25. And the shot of the mannor with the freight over the viaduct. Look forward to more, cheers Jack
Lovely Video as usual. I've often wondered how they link 2 loco's up together to work in tandem, without them working against each other. Is it just 2 drivers & a lot of skill?
The echo's of the whistles in Goodrington valley are awesome
