44871 accelerates The Stratford Flyer past Chettisham | 07/09/2024
As is the norm these days, LMS Black Five 44871 was the rostered loco for the steam hauled section of the latest Railway Touring Company trip, The Stratford Flyer from Norwich to Stratford-Upon-Avon.
The weather forecast for cloud and mist was, unfortunately, correct and, predictably, the Sun appeared not even 2 minutes after the train had passed. Here, the loco is seen accelerating the train away from the pathing stop at Ely West Junction and past Chettisham, making a lovely, crisp beat.

Sun, Steam & Sea | North Norfolk Railway Festival on Rails 25/08/2024
Переглядів 123День тому
Over the August Bank Holiday weekend, the North Norfolk Railway held their Festival on Rails event, with 6 locos featuring each day. 5 steam locos were in action, bolstered by a different diesel loco each day. I went on the Sunday of the event, primarily to see and ride behind new-build GWR 68XX 6880 Betton Grange. GWR 42XX 4277 Hercules (on long-term loan from the Paignton & Dartmouth Steam Ra...
Fantastic Fives | 5428 & 44806 slog and stomp over the North Yorkshire Moors Railway 17/08/2024
Переглядів 25314 днів тому
Having bought an annual pass for the North Yorkshire Moors Railway last year, I was keen to use it again before it expired. On my last 3 visits to the NYMR, I always managed to go on a day when LMS 5MT 5428 Eric Treacy was in the shed. Determined to break the curse, I kept an eye on the loco roster for a few weeks and made plans. My patience paid off and I visited on a day when not only was 542...
Chime whistles aplenty at the Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway | 11/07/2024
Переглядів 330Місяць тому
Normally, I'm not bothered about narrow gauge railways as I think the locos look ugly and sound tinny but the Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway is an exception. I find the British-outline locos really good looking and the Railway's tendency to fit them with chime whistles appeals greatly to me. I made my first visit to the line on a Green Timetable day, which meant 3 trains hauled by 4 locos, ...
Scottish steam and a Sulzer at the Spa Valley | Spa Valley Railway 07/07/2024

During a holiday in Sussex, I had been keeping an eye on the Spa Valley Railway, it not being a line I had previously visited. Diesel traction was initially advertised so I decided not to go but a last-minute change saw Caledonian Railway 812 class 828 back in service after repairs. In the end, I'm very glad I went as I had a great day, the line is nice and the volunteers were all extremely fri...
34059 Sir Archibald Sinclair climbs to Sharpthorne Tunnel | Bluebell Railway 06/07/2024

During my visit to the Bluebell Railway, I managed to get a front window for the climb out of Horsted Keynes to the site of West Hoathly station behind SR Battle of Britain 34059 Sir Archibald Sinclair. The gradient starts at 1in63 at Horsted Keynes before dropping to 1in75, then 1in134, and then it steepens to 1in60, finally dropping again to 1in75. 34059 put on a very good display, it being t...

During a holiday in North Wales, I made my first visit to the Llangollen Railway on a beautifully sunny day. The line is on an uphill gradient from Llangollen to Corwen with the departure from Berwyn requiring a standing start on the gradient as well as on a curve. From the roadside, we see GWR 57XX 7754 powering out of the station.

In the final video from my visit to the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, we see LMS Jubilee 45596 Bahamas climbing up the line from Keighley to Oxenhope.

Unfortunately, ...

When Steam Dreams announced their Windsor to Norwich trip was going to be hauled by BR Standard 7MT 70000 Britannia, I knew I'd have to go out and see it. I'd never seen the Brit before but 70013 Oliver Cromwell is a firm favourite of mine and this would be 70000's first trip on its old stomping ground in many years. In the weeks leading up to the tour, it was looking like Britannia wouldn't be...

    Up until late 1964, I used to travel to my Grandmothers from Baguley to Cadishead on the CLC line from Stockport to Liverpool. A particular delight was the Partington to Cadishead and reverse section, whereby the usually Stanier 2-6-4 tank loco pulled the 5 suburban coaches from a standing start up over the Manchester Ship Canal viaduct. Window lowered a tad via the leather strap, it was a sound etched in my memory, suitably jogged by this wonderful posting. Thank you.
