The Great Britain XII - 6233 Duchess Of Sutherland & Double Headers (Days 1-4)

- Duchess Of Sutherland was the star locomotive for the first three days of the Great Britain steam tour, which heads across England, Wales and Scotland over nine days. For this mammoth video we were on the road for four days, with full coverage of 6233 over the first three days, where we capture the Duchess from 13 locations featuring 19 different camera angles. A new personal record for ourselves !
While 6233 was the main star of our trip, there was two other doubleheaders which would haul the Great Britain and both making for rare combinations. The first unique combo was GWR Manor 7828 and S&D 7F which would haul the end of day two across the West Somerset Railway to Minehead. With the Duchess captured all the way from Bristol to West Cheshire on day three, day four would bring the mouth watering prospect of 60009 'Union Of South Africa' & Black Five '44871' over Shap Bank at the start of day four.
The plan was to follow the rest of day four into the southern part of Scotland but not too far away there was another huge locomotive making her full return and that was no other than 6201 'Princess Elizabeth' on the Dalesman and there was plenty of drama on her eventful return, unfortunately you'll have to wait till Friday to see her roaring back into action over the S&C !
In regards to the first four days of the Great Britain they were a roaring success with the majority of planned shots coming to fruition and with all the chosen locomotives performing superbly, especially the 'Duchess' when in the face of adversity up Hemerdon Bank although that dramatic climb does not feature here.
A big thanks to all who were involved in the operation of this tour and to the paying passengers, who were responsible for the making of this video. Now for a good long rest, I hope you enjoy the video. - Авто та транспорт
The sheer beauty in this incredible video is so overwhelming, that I had to watch it two times in a row, and it brought me literally to tears. Best steam video I've seen in quite a long time, perfect example of what they call "getting the whole picture". It's everything: incredible capturing of the spring atmosphere, the light, the magical British landscape, the sounds of the birds, sheep, church bells, and on top of that one of my most beloved steam loco's! Thank you so much and best regards from the Netherlands!
Wow, very kind words and they're very much appreciated. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
Liam and Phil, firstly congratulations on this superb achievement and many thanks for the pleasure of watching. I have enjoyed it all but, of particular note for me, the following sequences are special: 05:00, 09:30, 22:30, 25:30. It was also a pleasure to see the detailed footage of Odney Manor at the front of the WSR double-header. I could go on, but I'll just say thanks again. Kind regards, Bob.
Thanks so much, mouthwatering action shots.!
Thanks so much for posting! This is like a breath of fresh air. All the best from an ex southerner in Oz!😎🇦🇺👍

C'est la première fois que l'on voit une Mallard couplée à une Standare ..... Merci ...
Superb video Liam and Phil. Outstanding filming and a great selection of locations. Duchess performed magnificently. Nice to see the whole train in same livery. Nice to see the double header though the Black 5 seems to be doing most of the work. Well worth the chase. We got Duchess North of Abergavenny. See was fantastic there. Kind regards C&A
*What a fabulous collection of shots, well done.*
Fine record of the first four days Liam, some lovely shots. good to see you and your Dad on Watership Down on Monday!
Of all the steam loco's, this one has to be one of my favourites. I have filmed this one myself... awesome locomotive..! Great video and superb captures..😉👍👍👍👍👍
Stunning video - enjoyed it very much. Very well filmed using some locations I have never seen used before. Many thanks for sharing it.
Really good shots, as per usual! Cheers from the US!
Brilliant thanks!
Absolutely great. Congratulation
Super video and locations, thumbs up :)
You can keep the Flying Scotsman.Its the Duchess that does it every time for me....Superb Locomotive :)
Someone once said that there are not enough superlatives in the English language to describe the sound of a Duchess in full cry.
excellent footage again. I went to Ivybridge Station as i thought Hemerdon would be crowded. Oh well. Look forward to your next production. Happy Trails
Very good, well done!
Cracking video Liam and Phil , 6233 put in some stunning shows and the double header worked well on the 1 in 75 👍
Excellent job Liam
Fantastic video there my friend
Utterly Amazing!
Love your videos. Question: why not replace the black intro screen with the first part of the vid? That's more interesting than a dozen seconds of blackness. Thirty seconds of a static screen and silence in all.
Still, love your videos and appreciate the effort to bring them to us. Cheers!
No whistle?
Cor!
