The Cambrian Coast Express - 27/08/10 - Part 1

Part 1 of 7 videos on board the 'Cambrian Coast Express' hauled by ex-LMS Black 5 4-6-0 no.44871 over the magnificent Cambrian Coast Line from Machynlleth to Pwhelli and back.
In this video we see 44871 bring the stock into Machynlleth Station. We then see the two Class 158 Units from Pwhelli and Aberystwyth arrive to join up together. We then depart Machynlleth and travel the line to Dovey Junction where we stop briefly before setting off once more and start snaking our way alongside the Dovey Estuary itself.
Filmed on a Panasonic HS60 HD Camcorder
Enjoy

Excellent video collection. Traveled this line on many occasions by DMU, Nice to see unrestricted outside views rather than through dirty windows

A glimps of the station names would have been nice, so you could get a referance point. I have traveled this line and would be hard pressed to tell the location from this film.
