- What a great few hours I had filming on the afternoon at Marston green and Birmingham International when the freight just kept on coming because the WCML was closed for a week.
Plenty of action to get through this busy section during the diversions. Interesting to watch.
It was great Paul, this should happen for a week every year.
Superb, thank you 👍
Good of you to say that.
That video was a good advert for freight on rail Mike.
Yes a very good point there Bryan, wish this could happen one week a year on my local line. ATB Mike.
You are a lucky guy with a very nice video 👍😉
Thank you for taking a look.
Superb Mike, what an afternoon for you. Brilliant to watch all this action on our local line
Brilliant times all week Matthew, and you missed it.
great thanks from canada awesomw vids
Thank you very much for watching over there in Canada.
Brilliant video so it is. To see a 66 and 2 90's together is pretty special.
Cheers for watching my video.
@@antman09ful1 was a pleasure
Super busy afternoon Mike. Some great captures, especially the orange class 90's, well done 🤓
Yeah Tony its all back to normally now on that line from tomorrow, will be lucky now to get three freight all day. ATB Mike.
great video Mike some fantastic freight there matey lots of 66s and lots of box's ans a dead shed 😂really enjoyed it thanks for sharing Mike take care A T B Syd .👍
Been a great week Syd, I did do a latish night at Canley.
Good video 70014 also failed on Tuesday at Solihull causing issues
Did it Pete, was that on 4M55, thanks for watching my video.
Not sure it was on travel news my friend works up there👍
Another stupendously amazing video! I must say, your awesome talents/efforts of making your entertaining content never ceases to pay off wonderfully! Keep persevering with your spectacular work, and as for my continuous and devoted support, I wish you the brightest future that awaits you and that you gain tons of subscribers, loyal support and milestones than you ever dream of having! Very well done all in all! 🙌😀
Thanks for your comment again Andrew but I'm happy with the interest I have with my train videos as I reply to all the comments which does take a long time if I miss a day doing it.
Thank you again.
Enjoyed that, and catching the recovery work made for an interesting video
Thank you for your comment Malcolm, it was great to see this much traffic on this line.
Some amazing freight action there, I think the 90s look great in the GC livery and it's a shame they were never really used. Great shots of the 325 aswell!
I'm happy to see any class 90 in any livery, but I will admit the GC livery does look great on them. Thanks for checking out my video. Mike.
Wow Mike, what a day this was for you, plenty to see going on and especially loved the crossover at Marston Green.
I couldn’t take all day Andrew being this busy, I did three hours in the afternoon. Cheers Mike.
Great video! I remember seeing you at Birmingham Int'l.
Hi Si Yan, it was great meeting you last Monday when you was with Ron.
Thank you very much for watching my video, and I will certainly give your channel a viewing.
Would be great if I bumped into you again in the future, ATB Mike.
Cracking video Mike & on your doorstep as well😎Nice rescue capture.Catch you soon mate,Regards Dave
Morning Dave, yes a great week and it was all local, they should close the WCML once a year. Cheers Mike.
You certainly did have a mega afternoon there Mike, so glad you managed to be on hand to capture it all and share on film. It never ceases to amaze me why it takes so long to clear a failed train from the main line these days 🤔 Surely 57309 could have been used to drag the failure to Bescot if it was going to be running to Crewe anyway. Another great video from you Mike, thanks and take care.
Well Colin you are right with your comment about the 66 failing, I will never understand how our railway operate at times.
There will be more action from my week of filming these diverts Colin. Take care of yourself, Mike.
Great again mate |well done. I think this must be the day you spoke to Ron. He phoned me to say he spoke to you but he got a bit confused and was not sure if it was you he was speaking to but I put him right. The lad he was with was pleased to meet you as well.
Yes we had a very good few hours together and yes Ron does struggle a bit which is understandable.
That your lad Si Yan's is very polite and loves the hobby, I will have a look at his channel.
Mega day for freight
It was great Madeline.
Some cracking freight there Mike
Kept you busy 😊
Nice Acton from the failed loco too .Bonus !!
It did keep me very busy which was great Arthur, I managed to get out at different times of the day over the week four times.
Cheers Mike.
@@antman09ful1 nice one Mike 👍
Definitely mega, Mike. Can't believe it took nearly six hours to get a train back on the move!! Some things never change! 🙄🙄
Its a disgrace I think Robert, why couldn't the DRS 57 take the train to Bescot or would that have failed with the load. Thanks for watching and your comment, Mike.
Cracking shots and captures there Mike! Wow! Awesome action and variety! You did well there! The perfect vid! A perfect example of why I recommend your excellent channel! Great stuff! Top class! No faults at all! Well done! Great work! A winner! The perfect vid! Highly enjoyable stuff! Excellent detailing and camera work! Lovely engineers and DRS crossover! Good to see the ex EWS sheds coupling up and track machine as well! A mega day for freight through there! Another brilliant one from you! Some of those certainly weren't hanging around! I do love the Powerhaul and Jaffa livered Freightliner haha. Very nice indeed! Loooooooooooooooooooved it! Really enjoyed, thanks for sharing! Take care, have an awesome day and all the best! Jamie
Jamie I went out just four times over the week as I didn't want to repeat the same workings at the same time as the same places.
Thanks for watching. Regards Mike
@@antman09ful1 Very nice Mike, sounds like you've been busy! Not a problem, ATB, Jamie
excellent shots you did have a mega day 👍
Barry this was just three hours in the afternoon mate.
Great selection of freight trains Mike.
Many thanks Sam for watching, good to see you on this day.
hi Mike this is an exciting video gee they hv dangerous job getting off engines ever say hello to them? i wud just eaten some barm brack delicious they last finally i had 3 miles rain free walk Friday
You are doing ok then eating good food and walking a good distance Brian, thanks for watching. Mike.
Amazing!
It was mate, hope the chance comes again to repeat this last week.
@@antman09ful1 yes I hope it will come round again
Super video Mike :)
Many thanks Simon.
Great video again, just think how many lorries these freight trains take of the roads.
Yes you are right Clive, wouldn't be great if the freight company's could generate more onto the rails. Thank you for watchin my great after I had. Regards Mike.
Wonderful video! Wonder why the 90s were DIT behind the 66 on 4L90 though?
Maybe its cheaper to use a 66 as the electricity is expensive, I don't really know pal. Thanks for watching.
Very impressive Mike. Ironically at 1:35 there was actually too much freight!
Yes I get what you mean with them two passing, cheers Paul.
nice. sad this is the last day wish i could go see them but to far lol
Yes its been a very good week, would be nice if it happen again in the next few years.
Nice one Mike. I don't expect DRS crossover at your local
Nor me but as you can see it was very busy with the WCML closed Arnold.
@@antman09ful1 yes indeed
That’s because when HS2 is finished the Euston line will goose to passengers apart from local trains and freight
Really ???
Curious about a Diesel with two Electrics in tow, pantographs down.
One day someone will explain why.
@@antman09ful1 I won’t have to wait, done my homework, soaked it up like a sponge. This is why my friends love me… or is it loathe?
Mike, I was at marston green on Monday. but for some reason I don't remember seeing you 😂
I did see a group of three enthusiasts so maybe you was one of them. I will watch your video to see if we were there at the same time TTV.
@@antman09ful1 I was one of them
she's smoking!
Yes the 70 was.
