Speed??

THIS TRAIN GOING PAST Osborne School 🚸

Happy memories. 😊

You’re right - I should have called my web thread ‘steam trains at a particular speed’. There are even a few correspondents who think that the lead number - in this case 246 - indicates the actual speed LoL…look out for ‘Hayfield’s shorts’ instead - suitably generic - but I’m afraid I won’t be wearing them.

Well, it was certainly going at a particular speed. Just not a very fast one.

Used to go to Bath a lot in the mid sixties as a young teenager with my parents and would always go on my own to Sydney Gardens with my portable transistor radio and watch the trains, warships, westerns etc and listening to music by bands like the Who and Kinks etc, happy days😊

Dominion if NZ, that locomotive is really another member of the class, carrying that number specially fir that trip!

Why the American cow pusher style whistle, it's not Casey Jones's cannon ball express. This was never the practice on BR or pre grouping.

Slow speed!

Great Job. 👏🏼

It's so good to know and see so many people love and appreciate these trains.I especially like young people and kids enjoying them which is good for the future not just today.

Not even a whistle, miserable *od.😢

What a glorious piece of machinery.

Ранний модерн и паровоз и никаких дизельных локомотивов в хвосте. Спасибо! Когда вижу паровоз уже не думаю о теориях мироздания, мне паровоза достаточно.

You have not seen a steam train at speed until you have seen one rocking from side to side with the force of the pistons. I still remember this as a boy.

Nice. Well done SWR driver for not loitering and the acknowledgement of FS.

Gosh she was travelling, what say you? 70-80mph?

Excellent video Will. Great to see the double header with the one at the rear. Best wishes C&A

Excellent 2 videos Will. What a great gala to go to. Captured some amazing shots, and a journey in the observation coach. That must of been fantastic. Looks like you had a superb day. Hope you are all keeping well. Best wishes C&A

great video. all that smoke. bet it smelt lovely

Excellent video Will. Great coverage of the actions at Swanage. Great to see you out enjoying yourself videoing steam. Keep them coming. Hope you're all well as we are . Best wishes C&A

Glad you like it ! It was a great run - very evocative.

Fantastic I love this! Reminds me of travelling to/from boarding school at Wilhelmshaven to Duisburg where my parents picked me up for the ride back to RAF Laarbruch during 1956-58 ; happy days they were!

Great to see the Bullieds out on the main line. Picton NZ

True or not one of these in steam day's is supposedly have touched over ,100 miles per hour a wonderful locomotive these standard 5s

There really needs to be an investigation into the term “at speed” this steamer wasn’t even out of second gear.

I remember lying in bed and listening to the noises from the shunting yard as a 4 or 5 year old. A couple of years later I was lucky enough to have a footplate ride on Mallard on the turning triangle at Grantham.

Like 4 days ago, when me and Dad were right by the tracks, (we went back every time that a train came past!) a steam train came past, and I got so shocked! We saw ICE´s too!

Half the video showed a diesel unit, the other half was the steam engine pulling just a single coach. Somewhat underwhelming.

Excellent video Will. Nice to see Clan Line back in action and performing well All the best C&A

Wonderful! ❤

Brilliant video Will. What a fantastic experience for you. Hope you throughiy enjoyed yourself. Best wishes C&A

What a fantastic birthday surprise. Looks like you had a wonderful day. Another milestone gone by. Best wishes C&A

WOW fantastic....

Are these locos fired with coal or oil?

Excellent video Will. Well captured.. Big steam engines with stupid high pitch whistles. Hope you enjoyed your holiday. It looked very enjoyable Best wishes C&A

Excellent video Will. Very interesting unit. Probably great to travel in. Best wishes C&A

Another excellent video Will. Looks like it was a great steam gala. Enjoyable watching. Best wishes C&A

Excellent video Will. .lovely to see the steam engines in France. Looks like you had a great time there. Good on board footage. Well captured. Best wishes C&A

I was there in 1952/3 where I learnt to love trains. (And got over the low wall to petrify my Mother.)

Milfield 😮

Great video outstanding share to see this video childhood memories back🌹👍

Goosebumps hearing the whistle…..

Good to see without the Oilcan on the rear

'Promosm' 💘

BTW: Where do I find me one of these Women who like to go with their Man to watch a steam train go by (?)

If there’s one thing I’ve learnt about watching a steam locomotive on the mainline is don’t stand on the opposite platform but I’m so glad that 450 unit left the platform before it arrived and didn’t obscure everyone’s view! 😂

That was slow! In the late 1950’s I used to go train spotting at Didcot. One day the “Cheltenham Flyer” came through at what I was told was about 90mph. No smoke. No steam. Just a rhythmic and rapid thud, thud, thud. I never saw a repeat from any train again. I expect the number is in my Ian Allen trainspotters book, which my brother who is a volunteer at Quainton now has.

at speed really

Powerful machines in action!
