- A great visit to the Churnet Valley Railway.
Starting at Froghall and taking a ride on the final service of the day all the way along the line to Ipstones.
The loco in charge was class 4Mt, 75014 'Braveheart', on loan to the CVR for 4 months from The Dartmouth Steam Railway.
A great sight and sound as she climbs away from Leakbrook up the 1 in 40 gradient to Ipstones, along the Cauldon Branch.

GREAT STUFF. CHEERS
Thanks Keith
Great video as always Phil, I spy myself in the video at 1:21 at Froghall station, I was filmed the departure from Froghall, although couldn't see much of 75014 due to the amount of steam coming from the drain valves as she departed. I managed to get a shot of her on the Ipstones Branch at Apesford. Kind regards, Jake.
Thanks Jake. Sorry, I didn't get to see you for a chat. It was a steamy departure. Best wishes Phil
Great days filming, never heard of that line before. Liking Braveheart.👍👍
Thanks David. Well worth a visit, great scenery 😀👍
I keep saying I would like to visit this railway but I always forget Phil.
You must go Mike. Saying that, it must be 5 years since I last went.
Nice video Phil been a while since I was there.
Thanks Rick. Time to go again:😀
great
Thanks
You may have noticed that this loco hasn’t got a proper whistle as the other standard locos
That's true
@@philclarke3203yep it’s got a chime whistle
Nice chime whistle, reminds me of Tornado and Britannia's chime whistles. Wonderful sound. What sort of steamy whistle sound do you love most?
The chime whistles sound great. Anything is better than Flying Scotsmans effort,
Did it arrive with that chime whistle? Any news on progress towards Leek would be good. Certainly some wild country encountered on that trip.Great journey.
Yes, complete with chime whistle. Sorry can't update you with the extension, certainly a great journey though.👍
The sign on the signalbox was spelled LEEKbrook! 🙂
😂 I didn't notice
Ah yeah 75014 on a loan visit to Staffordshire
Indeed
@@philclarke3203yeah and after 4 months is up it will go back to Devon
Whats the 4t doing there
4f? It's based there now, waiting for an overhaul
