Spa Valley Railway: “303 Squadron” takes on the “Polar Express” | 28/11/24
As we approach the start of meteorological winter, railways across the country rapidly gear up for the commencement of their festive services and the Spa Valley is no exception as they would see many happy passengers make the trip up to the North Pole with the “Polar Express”.
Challenged with the task of hauling the heavy nine set would be Southern Loco LTDs own 34053 “303 Squadron” top and tailed with Class 69 69063. The pair would have five scheduled departures from Tunbridge Wells West with the addition to the pair shuttling up and down Poke Farm Crossing a few times to make up the two hour experience.
It certainly was a cold but also a frosty and sunny day giving the perfect winter filming conditions, if only most winter days were like today!

No steam heat Leaks as the 33 is supplying ETH to all 7 coaches and gets the coaches nice and warm quickly in the mornings.
British steam locomotives with American style headlights are quite the oddity but I’m all here for it
Nice video :)
Nice video :)
Cheers for the kind words my friend
Lovely ex SR loco
Living near the Equator region, seeing snow falling seems to be living in a winter wonderland.❤❤❤
Lovely ex Lms royal scot
west coast railways are short of steam locos only 44871 to work all there steam trains its just like they dont care anymore they could not fit CDL to mark 1 coaches i would not go on any of there trains
They don’t just have 44871… They have 34067, 45212 & 45407 also at their disposal
@@LiamsLocos seems like they only using 44871 at the momment
@@BIGV710 they’ve had 45212 on recent northern belles… followed by the use of 45407 too
@@BIGV710We have 35028 coming our way in December on a RTC service.
Quite possibly the most ludicrous top-'n-tail imaginable: mainline express one way, and station pilot the other way!
Certainly an interesting combo, was the reason I went over to film that day!
I always get annoyed with the tour company's when they do the wrong headcode! 😫 But I'm happy it still ran! 🙂
Why were they top and tailed?
@@adamtravers856 Due to ongoing engineering work at Sharpthorne tunnel, the furthest locos can work is up to the south portal and obviously there’s no run around loop there meaning it had to be top & tailed.

Same class but wrong engine, Fenchurch is featured in this video
Lol
omg that whistle at 3:24 SOUNDED REALLY NICE
Lovely, especially the night shots. Great seeing Fenchurch.
Many thanks for the kind words my friend!
Ruins it for me when the trains backwards going forwards , cracking video love Dymchurch
Awesome! I caught it near Walmer! But I think you got the better vids! 😂 Great completion though! Well done!
Nicely filmed, and well put together. Great to have your company as always.
Thank you very much my friend 😊
Superb footage!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Gorgeous footage, Sturry clip was superb.
@@benjaminb33 Thank you my friend, I was very impressed with it myself lineside.
Super! Got to love a battle of the whistles!
It was this moment we knew, we got deaf 😵 Nice meeting you that day with TheSouthener! 😃
Thank you my friend, was a pleasure meeting you as well!
Reminds me of Spencer and the Duke and duchess
A very nice video. Good to meet you on the footpath at HK too!
Cheers mate, was great meeting you too!
Its great to see the "class 69" changing its identity
Glorious run out that was 😍

Merhaba arkadaşım. Bu trenler köyler arsında sefer mi yapıyor. Yoksa hobi eğlence amaçlı yapılmış bir proje mi?
@@hobialetleriyapimi5456 Merhaba dostum, hat boyunca birçok köyün bulunduğu 13 mil uzunluğunda bir hat boyunca seyahat ediyorlar. Hat boyunca 7 istasyon var.
@chaileystowe3026 bilgiler için çok teşekkür ederim arkadaşım. Ayrıca başka bir yorumda bu hattın evine yakın olduğunu söylediğini gördüm. Bu yüzden çok şanslısın i.
Beautiful little trains still an attraction after all these years
@@TechnoMagi-h4r certainly a popular with crowds! Do feel I perhaps take it for granted with it being so close to home.
11:54 that was the greatest & deafest moment ever! 😂😵 Nice meeting you! 🙂
Was nice meeting you too mate!
Well this is unexpected, great videoo, what type of Gauge is this?
Cheers mate, the RH&DR is a 15 inch gauge railway.
Great video man :)
Cheers bro
Super addition of the band and the close ups of the SNG. That segment worked really well.
60007 is owned by the Sir Nigel Gresley Locomotive Trust, not Locomotive Services. SNG is hired to LSL by SNGLT for mainline tours. Events like the Bluebell gala are facilitated by SNGLT.
Wow the 5 giving a good blast over the weekend 😍😍😍😍
Chailey - the first 1.5 minutes is the best I’ve ever seen! Perfect lighting in the early morning, and very thoughtful editing to set the scene. I was only there on Saturday, working on the KC lineside, dodging the showers.
Many thanks Roger for the kind works, certainly was a great show that you guys provided!
That opening shot, WOW!
Congrats on breaking 1k! This on your new camera?
Thank you matey, I’m still on the same camera for now!
Great Captures, this is definitely your best one yet :)
Thank you mate 🙌

6695 out of Turk street, that was loud, especially when opened up. Music.
Certainly was, almost didn’t include it in the video as well. Glad I included it in the end
