    Work in progress not only includes the loco's but also the videos! We are working on improving not only the sound quality but also the presentation 😊
    Please comment below on what more would you like from our videos.

      @@railwaymaniacs7392 it is such a soft exhaust compared to a New South Wales 38 class in full flight. They are beautiful engines though. Maybe, one as originally built could do a tour down-under like Flying Scotsman. Wouldn't that be something.

      It's nice to see in her current livery and condition. Gives a younger generation a little idea of how our steam locomotives finished their service for B.R. Also the only member of the SLL fleet that could carry the Southern railway livery as on Blackmoor Vale on the bluebell railway.

      @@railwaymaniacs7392 I think it’s great to see her as she would have looked in service. She looks as a working loco should in my opinion.
      Just a question is she artificially « weathered » or is this her « genuine » external condition?

    My favorite Battle of Britain class is 21C166 Spitfire and it was considered a candidate for preservation in the 60s but 21C123 Blackmoor Vale was chosen for preservation because it was in better condition than 21C166 Spitfire

      We have volunteers from all over. Sometimes we need to shout out for some help of some kind that you could help with. It depends on your skill set. It's not all about being on site and engineering. If your interested contact via

      Hi Shark. We would love to have a loco running mainline. There is a lot involved in making this leap. Mainly the extra funding required. If that was forthcoming then other barriers just become hurdles to leap over.

      It would be nice to see them stretch their legs on the mainline. The extra finances required to make this happen would need to be secured .

    Good info, thanks very much, but I could do without the 'presentation'. Instead, voice over images and quietly spoken, is always more restful to the ear. If I wanted to listen to a sergeant major, I would have joined up.
