- We visited 2the SVR on the 27th of September when Storm 'Agnes' was raging across the country. On this day, we were able to travel all day on round trips between Kidderminster to Bridgenorth and return behind Hymek D7076, Warship D821 and Western D1062. Excellent value at only £30 each for the full day.
Bob, Great to see a video from your good self and helping to support the survival of this fine railway. Hope you and Mrs M are keeping well. Regards, John
It was a last minute decision to go John, because of the Stormy weather. We thoroughly enjoyed our day, and hope the SVR will survive the current situation. Regards...Bob
Value for money Bob , noticed thore original Gents toilet there !! nice video
Thanks Dave, not the best weather, but it was a great day out.....Bob
Excellent video came passed on way to my hotel in Worcester at about 17.00hrs! 27th was my 62nd birthday. Spent next day travelling on SVR and a lot of videoing at Highley. What a couple of days!!!
Belated Birthday wishes Vernon, it was an incredible collection of locos that the SVR had acquired for the event.
Nice to see some of your updates. I now have some video clips on UA-cam. I usually concentrate on the trains that run on the Swansea District Line. Regards Jon.
I've virtually retired from videoing now Jon, I will try and view some of your uploads when I can....Bob
Hi Bob, thanks for the gala footage with work and family I couldn’t get there and again you captured the excitement we have for heritage railways Best wishes Gareth
Thanks very much Gareth, despite the bad weather conditions, we still had a great time there...Regards...Bob
Goodness Bob - what a load of machines they had to view (and ride behind). Pleased to see you were able to get out again and thankful for another excellent video. Take care - Chris
Thanks Chris, travelling on the trains was our only option, but we enjoyed it despite the weather conditions....Very Best wishes....Bob
I always love how a volunteer who has all day to move a litter bin in 2023 clothing does it just as the only departure in 2 hours leaves Kidderminster, Railways spend thousands on historic buildings etc then a guy turns up in his orange or lemon safety vest for 20 mph running
Thanks for your thought provoking comment Vernon.
Great video Bob I saw your pictures in Llanelli market they are wonderful keep up the good work 👍
Thanks very much, Jay at Llanelli Market is a lovely man, and I was delighted to help him along his way with some of my images.
Cracking Bob, hope you enjoyed it.
It's been a few years since we visited the SVR, and we thoroughly enjoyed this day out. Plenty to see, and such great value as well.
Very nice Bob . Hope to do a driver day one day
Thanks very much, and I hope you have a wonderful day there.
Great video bob. Great shot at 4:53. Keep up the good work mate.
That’s severn valley railway public services something running again in the end of February or early March onwards after brand New Year beginning 2024
Thanks Jacob, that was 4930 Hagley Hall in the Depot at Bewdley.
Brilliant video Bob. Superb onboard footage. What a great selection of diesels on show . As you said. Value for money. A fantastic day of filming. Enjoyable watching . Best wishes C&A
Thanks both, much of the on board footage is unusable due to the strong winds, but what I could use is ok...Best wishes....Bob
2:42I'd have been getting a little worried at that point 🤔
My thoughts as well, however, she recovered and performed Faultlessly throughout the journey. The sound as she was opened up through Bewdley Tunnel was out of this World!
She was smoking quite a bit on Thursday as well and at one point they struggled to fire her back up at Bridgnorth however, with some persistence, she erupted into life and performed faultlessly for the whole weekend. We had her on the last train of the day into Kidderminster and they pretty much stopped at the entrance to the tunnel before going full bore with 'on Ilkley moor' being sounded on the horn. Wonderful!
Great Video Bob. Much different than the many trips that you have taken.
Lots of the old engines still around and working. Glad you had a great trip
and lots of film for us none train riders.
Thanks as always Wayne, it was very windy on the day caused by storm Agnes, which made the on board coverage difficult. We still enjoyed our day...Best wishes...Bob
A superb video Bob, great to see all those fantastic diesels on show. Regards, Jeff
Thanks Jeff, it was very windy, but I've not seen so many Diesels at a Gala for many a year....Regards....Bob
Good onboard footage Bob, glad you both had a good day out
Thanks Austin, restricted to what we can do these days, but delighted we could do this one.
