- Saturday 2nd December 2023 saw the inaugural day of festive 'Santa Special' service on the Somerset & Dorset Railway.
Trains were hauled by visiting Peckett R3 Class 0-4-0ST, No.1788 'Kilmersdon' (courtesy of the Somerset & Dorset Trust) - returning to her old Somerset jaunts; the locomotive having working at Kilmersdon colliery just a few miles away.
Filmed on crisp winters day, we see 'Kilmersdon' working up the 1/57 climb towards Chilcompton Tunnel, from a various lineside location along the route.
**Please note some shots were taken from the lineside under the careful guidance of volunteers, from non-public location. As always, I would like to say a massive thanks to all the staff and volunteers for this wonderful opportunity.**

Hope you enjoy!
Probably the best filming you’ve ever done- well done Callum
Thanks ever so much Ken! Glad you enjoyed it
Great stuff callum. And amazing that she survived
Really is a remarkable little engine
A very good film of the Loco Callum!!! 🙂🚂🚂🚂
Cheers
An 'anodyne' to a day here of warship-grey unrelenting clouds; I like how you use long shots because it makes the trains more detailed and even dramatic. Fantastic! And the ending was special!
Many thanks indeed! Glad you liked the edit, the weather was just perfect for those little bits of B roll, like the signal at the end.
Perfect conditions for steam, nice one
Really was! Probably the best conditions I've ever experienced for it
Good video thanks lee
Cheers
I’ve driven her at the watercress line, she’s a lovely loco
Really is a cracking little engine. Need to get over to the Mid Hants at some point
