Thanks for sharing. I was at ELR. She seemed to be going well but with only a light load of 8 coaches plus the water carrier which appeared to have sprung a leak.
I caught another steamer myself Luke and that’s the royal Scot on a tour to Worcester and I’ve caught her down at abbotswood junction slowing to take the line to the left to Worcester
And I’ve just been told that blue Peter is going to the Severn valley railway for testing before she’s allowed to be released back out on the mainline that’s about next week
Great Video mate I was at the East Lancashire Railway legends of steam gala I was tempted to see the Earl up the Shap but it was too far for me to travel. My video from the east Lancs is out now if you are interested
I was onboard the tour hauled by the castle and she certainly put on an amazing show that day. From realtime trains timings 34067 arrived in Carlisle just 4 minutes after 5043 had arrived. Incase your wondering why the tour was running so late it was because a passenger had to be taken off in Preston as they had just had a heart attack so we needed to wait for an ambulance to arrive, apparently the air ambulance was involved. th-cam.com/video/oXibOnDvEMo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=WCfzoBh-GTfqMl74
Spot on Luke , can’t go wrong with Shap Wells 👍Cracking show from the Castle.
Cheers stephen. I did plan on doing the summit but I was happy with shap wells. Maybe next time.
Awesome footage. 👍🏻
Thank you
Great filming of a cracking day in the North West GWR 5043 showing how it should be done without assistance, cheers 🎥
Thank you.
Great footage...hurtling through Penrith was a particular joy!
Thank you
Incredible mate!
Top draw
Thank you mate. Somewhere for us to go in the future
Brilliant shots mate, 5043 over Shap was top class and was great to spend another day out with you. Regards, Dan
Always a pleasure Dan. Another memorable performance from 5043
Great set of shots. Brilliant shot of the Earl passing the platform. Last shot almost bombed, lol 🤣. 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you. I did have a going away shot set up at Lancaster. Not included for obvious reasons. 😂
Luke, Your first trip to Shap looked successful with a great result. Regards, John
Cheers John. It was a good day. I did plan on the summit but settled for shap wells as I got chatting to people I hadn’t seen for a while.
Great video! Nice to have bumped into you at Penrith. Great chat!
Cheers mate. Great to see you too.
