Jake B: The Best of 2023

With the New Year now well under way, it's time to take a look back at what was 2023. And what a year its been! We've celebrated 100 years of Flying Scotsman as well as 100 years of The Big Four and the return to steam of sole surviving T3 No.563.
The year also saw a number of notable returnees to steam including: 34092 'City of Wells', 5043 'Earl of Mount Edgcumbe' & LSWR T3 No.563. This year also saw a number of locos bowing out of service, in need of overhaul. Including: 5463, 9466, 92214 & 45231 'Sherwood Forester'
I'd like to take this moment to thank everyone who watched and supported my videos throughout the year and, of course, all those involved with the restoration and running of those beautiful beasts that we adore so much, and the railways they run on. Without whom, none of this would be possible. Thank you and a Happy New Year to you all.

Only half way through, some lovely footage, especially the station yard views with the GWR sign and the Morris 1000 Police car......thanks

Thanks, glad your enjoying it, the shots of the Morris Minor Police car were pretty much by luck, thanks to the vehicle owner who pulled up giving myself and several other photographers the chance to take photos and video. 🙂
