I had this VHS when I was a kid & I used to watch it with my Granddad who passed away nearly 20 years ago. I found this yesterday after talking about my granddad & then went searching online to find it & as soon as the video started with the close up from a helicopter shot of the Scotsman’s cabin, I got emotional as I had a flood of memories just come back to me. Thank you for posting this up for everyone’s enjoyment & hopefully like me to relive precious memories 😊🤗👍
well done. Lovely video. Thanks for shairing
That's a beautiful little engine
Nice work... thanks for that
3:05 This LNER Gresley A3 Pacific Express Steam Locomotive Flying Scotsman Is A Bit Like Gordon The Big Engine From Thomas The Tank Engine And Friends The Original Series In 1984. Thanks A Lot Mate. X
In both the books and TV series, Scotsman is Gordon’s brother and a cousin of LNER’s Mallard.
31:27 a lot of that has changed as of today the level crossing seen here in this clip is gone completely so instead it has the road that goes right by the entrance of Tipton station
Sadly smethwick west station is now overgrown and it’s been like this since it closed in 1996 and as for the signal box it’s now long gone
18:57 I still go to Kidderminster to attend the gala weekends especially for steam galas and diesel galas on the Severn valley railway
Worcester shrub hill still sees semaphore signals still In operations as it did during the days of steam
8:22 all that has changed since then the platforms of bromsgrove were moved further back from the position where the cameraman is standing and it’s now a new terminus for the cross city line
40:48 flying scotsmans whistle
Great! Big thank you.
14:40. Looks like the shunter was in a bit of a panic over how hard that coupling was.
Some familier faces, the late Teddy Hancock for one.
2:48 I've Didn't Know Flying Scotsman Did Go To Australia. Happy Christmas Mate. X
0:18 I've Might Go To Birmingham In Warwickshire England In The United Kingdom Next Year In April 2023 Just After The City Of Orlando In Florida In The United States Of America. Wish Me Luck. Happy Christmas Mate. X
Birmingham is no longer part of Warwickshire it’s now part of being a second city of the uk
@@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329yes, Birmingham nowadays is in the county of West Midlands (not to be confused with the region the West Midlands county is part of, which is also called West Midlands).
@@RWL2012indeed
0:22 This Music Is So Funky. Thanks Mate. X
Since Scotsman went down under for Aus Steam 88, could they bring 3801 to the UK for her hundredth birthday?
3801 would be too large for the UK loading gauge (too tall and wide), outside of the Channel Tunnel line anyways.
@@DarkLordSauron100 How did Scotsman fit on the Australian gauge?
@@bennickss easy, it's smaller than our largest locomotives thus fits in our loading gauge
@@chrisrabbitt Flying Scotsman runs on the standard gauge, hence why she ran along with 3801.
@@FMAChet yes mate, I'm aware of that. No broad gauge in England, just Ireland if I'm not mistaken
this is how I was introduced to 3801 when I already knew about the R-Class and K-Class and D-3 class and of course Flying Scotsman herself.
I love these train documentaries

This one of the best train documentaries ever made and what got me introduced to flying Scotsman
I watched this about 100 times when I was really really young. It was done at my grandparents house who now don't have the VHS Tape. And now I've found it again after a decade. I love the internet this way.
