Many thanks. It's a very enjoyable experience filming on the FR and WHR - such variety in locomotives and scenery, gradients, great sounds and so much to capture!
I dunno .... all those people on that gravity working, when three would've operated a 200 plus ton train back in the day, by running between their portion of the moving waggons. It's health and safety gone mad, I tell you!! Lovely clip. Fingers crossed "Welsh Pony" and "Taliesin" are back for next years' event ("Mountaineer" - either one - seems a tad overly optimistic!!)
I'm just treasuring the fact that the Ffestiniog's gravity trains are still allowed to run in our 'health and safety world' - in contrast to so many other areas of life where restrictions have greatly limited our freedom! But I'm pleased you liked the video....
Lots of excellent views.
Wonderful . .
Thank you. Your thoughts are greatly appreciated!
Another great FR/WHR video, so much variety and great locations.
And also a really enjoyable pleasure to film such an event!
Amazing footage man, love the way u compose the shots
