What a superb collection! I cannot imagine the effort, miles and time it took to assemble this video. As an audio engineer I know how many thing are outside your control when trying to shoot videos like this. Quite the best I have ever listened to. Thank you so much!
David, thanks for your kind feedback. Filming scenes like these is never straightforward, as it's now become a spectator sport due to media coverage but thankfully we have plenty of countryside to escape in and capture some decent soundtracks from time to time.
I notice that the soundtrack is mono, was that a deliberate choice or mixed down from stereo for this this version? Not a criticism just an observation!

The beauty about these trains are, you hear the chugging sound, then you see the smoke, then at last the train itself. It's just glorious. Hats off to you for getting all these videos.
Few things stir my soul like the sight and sound of a hard-working steam locomotive. British steam is so elegant and classy. American railroads have nearly abandoned running steam anymore. Thank goodness, the British still revere their heritage where one can still see, hear, smell and ride behind steam.
Depends on the railroad. Norfolk Southern and Burlington Northern Santa Fe will allow steam movements on their rails, schedules permitting, and there are numerous tourist railroads that operate them. Some, like the Strasbourg, even do steam-powered revenue freight work, still. And then, of course, there’s the Union Pacific Steam Program, with the Living Legend UP #844, UP #3985, and the Big Boy UP #4014. But yes, the major railroads do seem to be ignoring the lessons of the Southern and Norfolk Southern Steam Programs about the value of steam power for public relations.
@@yuanovitafitria8968 most of them run coal occasionally some will burn wood, ive been around a few back in the day but don't remember a distinct smell
There are still steam powered trains but its not wide spread. we have a train local to me in PA that runs a track from Reading pa to jim Thorpe pa. Its more of a sight seeing thing with the benefits of hitting the shops of a small town. Its really popular in fall when the leaves in the mountians change colors and they do christmas themed runs in the winter.
I have watched railway videos from around the world but you just cannot beat the sight and sound of British steam, especially when you get an absolutely top notch compilation like this. Superb !!!
It almost brings a tear to my eye when I see and hear these beautiful machines, from the steam pistons chatting and the sound of the whistle. When they blow their whistle... they are simply saying: "Hey I'm Alive" and they all have their own characters and personality. Fantastic video and hats-off to you sir :-)
This is wonderful. My grandfather lived somewhere in the West Midlands, I don't know what borough. He was a brakeman, I think. He loved it. My grandmother would recite all his stories. What a life then. What a life.
I started watching this with my young granddaughter who’d never seen nor heard a steam train in her life. She now only want to watch videos of steam trains, as do I and we’ve arranged a future trip on the Flying Scotsman. Thank you so much for this video which she’s now watched every single day for the last two weeks, as have I. 👍😊👍
I am so pleased this video popped up on my feed. Nostalgic, timeless, great memories of a bygone age, when the pace was a lot slower than it is now. Thank-you.
You did, believe me. Memories of climbing up the bridge, so I could look over at the steam trains climbed through Kibworth cutting, and getting a face full of smuts to go to school with. Lovely times.
CONGRATULATIONS on creating one of the best Steam compilations on UA-cam. Amazing sound quality supported by fabulous film footage; simply brilliant. THANK YOU.
Ne güzel makinalardı bu lokomotifler.. her tarafı ayrı bir mühendislikve mekanizma harikası. Adeta yaşayan ve, her tarafı ayrı güzeldi.Yol sesleri, düdükleri, buhar atmaları hepsi ayrı güzeldi.. Yok ettik bunları, sanki dünyayı kirleten sadece bunlardı ..
Years ago you could buy "Sounds of Steam" LPs, this collection puts me in mind of listening to those in the 1970s, wishing I had been born a few years earlier. Great sound punctuated by bird song, lovely thankyou.
There is a such a CD available from the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society which might interest you. It’s called “Symphony of Steam”, and features various recordings of the Nickel Plate Road 765, which just happens to be owned and operated by that very same group.
I was born in the early 1940s. For many years we rode the Chesapeake and Ohio train between DC and my grandmother's home in Ashland, KY. Her house was just 3 blocks from the train tracks. The ride was wonderful and at night I could hear the steam engines whistle. Such wonderful memories.
A fantastic collection. Thanks very much for compiling. The winning shot for me was Lizzie blasting out of the mist. Wonderfully atmospheric, but the Earl on Sapperton, and Leander at Miles Platting were superb performances as well.
As a Canadian American and a devotee of many fan trips in both counties this was a delight to hear, as I recorded many over the years. The thing I find the most fascinating to listen for is the distinctive beat of a three cylinder locomotive, something one never hears in NA. When their timing is dead on and there is no distinctive lope, it is very hard to define at high speed.
Thank you for sharing these exceptional scenes. Well composed and shot. And yes, the sounds are tremendous. Loved the scene of the 8F at Ais Gill, superb. And some nostalgia for me. Having never been across the pond, 4472 came to me in 1970. I had the opportunity to take a short, few hundred yards, footplate ride on the Flying Scotsman. It was five dollars for only a few minutes, but wow, a memory I will not forget.
What outstanding work! The clarity and crispness of both your video and audio are unmatched anywhere on the web. Thank you so much for taking the time and trouble to film, edit and upload.
I remember as a kid my dad getting me on a steam powered train somewhere. I remember just how gentle the ride was. I had trouble staying awake because the soft rocking and noise puts you right to sleep.
I was bought up on steam, Dad and me used to go to traction engine rallys and Dad knew the owner of the Bluebell line, I have driven the main engine of the line really great feeling to be in charge of all that power, but for me it was the smell of the steam the coal burning in the fire box and the smell of a well oiled engine 😀 i just was in my own heaven at the age of 14 ,but I'm still a big fan of steam and now Dad has gone I've got lovely memories 😀 👍
Some fantastic shots... and amazing sounds... but, you definitely save the best to last!!! Wow!!! There is nothing sounds better than a Manor at full cry!!!!! Thanks for a great vid!
Brought back wonderful memories of trainspotting (in its original meaning). As a youngster in the early 60s I used to take the local from Palmers Green to Wood Green (Alexandra Park) at weekends, and saw many A1, A3 and A4 Pacifics blasting through among all of the other less-glamorous locos; a multitude of tankers and the magnificent 2-10-0 9Fs. Also had the "bad luck" to miss a connection at Swindon once, and had to spend an entire afternoon on the platform... There were still a few Castle Class running then. It is wonderful to see that so many of these great machines have been lovingly restored to their original liveries and numbers, and kept running, long after their shedmates went to scrap. And they all look so much cleaner now than they did back then under BR! Super quality video, beautiful framing and composition, and above all super sound! My grand-daughter is now just starting to appreciate choo-choos, which gives me the ideal excuse to keep watching over and over. Thank you so much for this! from Toronto, Canada
Probably the best collection.. from the best viewpoints.. in the world of UK steam. Loved the curved track view of 'Union of South Africa', a really powerful loco.. Huge thanks to the film crew.. And hilarious, near the end, to see not one but three US-built heavyweight locos emerging from a tunnel in a cloud of steam, and with not one but two diesel engines at the back!
What stands out in this video is the quality of the photography. Every frame seems to stand out like a quality photograph. Put them all together and you have a feature movie. Absolutely beautiful collection from England!

Hello, this is a long comment but here goes: I live in South Africa, there used to be a decent steam culture here but that has gone down massively in the last few decades. I've recently started looking at steam trains after re-watching Thomas the tank engine for the fist time in over 7 years, and I'm truly saddened by the fact that one day my kids won't be able to see such magnificent creatures in my beloved home country. It's just become too expensive for anyone but a few companies to maintain and keep some engines running, mostly for tourism. I myself have only been on a train once (that may or may not have been steam it's so long ago that me and my parents don't quite remember) and the rail infrastructure in SA is so damaged from theft, abuse and neglect that I doubt I'll ever see a working engine of any sort here ever again without at least some travel. That being said, I will be going to university in the UK in about a year, and I am so excited to see steamies in their natural habitat and possibly even go on one (darn it I'm getting slightly emotional) and finally enjoy the wonder of steam engines myself. I have heard that it is quite expensive but I want to do this for myself. For showing me the beauty of these trains and their lovely surroundings, and letting a young man know that a childhood dream that has long been dimished is still alive and chuffing along: I thank you.
Fabulous locations, wonderful photography and sound recording and, of course, great locomotives. Brought a real smile during this ghastly lockdown. I think I will need to watch iy on a daily basis.
