  • HellfireTV was there to capture another first from behind the engines. 20066 restored to it's original BR blue livery recently, was provided by Harry Needle to the East Lancashire Railway for it's 2024 Summer Gala.
    Chopper '66 hauled it's first passenger train in 34 years!
    Filmed from Bury Bolton Street through to Rawtenstall. This beautifully presented English Electric Class 20 was explosive with the noise and clag and provided thrilling entertainment as you'll experience in this run, filmed both sides from various locations. This time I won't say Enjoy The Ride as you will. Let watch 20066 take your breath away!

    Love the "I'm recording for the thrash" comment, nearly pee'd myself.

      so Harry needle owns it but left it to rot away unusual for him as he usually hires them out as he's a money 💰 head! so had he paid the E.L.R to restore it and repaint it!!!

      I have various Rode Microphones with various combinations of foam and wind mufflers.. I also sometimes use a sennheiser mk 200 too. Glad you enjoy the films it has taken me 30 years trialling different rigs and set ups and I am really happy with the current output. I am getting older as are all these noisy diesels and want to create as many films for people as possible. Our hobby now is seasonal finishing now in October so with hundreds of films to choose from I still get my fix in those dark days in the winter months!
