- Five giants of steam preservation would all grace the mainline on Saturday 20th July, with three steam specials passing over the Settle & Carlisle Railway within the space of a few hours, once again the Northern Hills played host to the sights and sounds of steam traction ! There was also two other steam tours across the Welsh Marches Line, proving England was the place to be for mainline steam locomotive action, and in this video all five locos can be seen on their individual trains.
The day was long and challenging, especially at the start with a heavy downpour of rain, which still managed to played second fiddle to 'Princess Elizabeth as she stormed through the rain up the S&C. Second up was Flying Scotsman which was hauling the Northern Belle dining train and is seen climbing Giggleswick Bank with it's heavy load. After the passing of Scotsman and one hour later it was Tornado's turn over the S&C, and the A1 is seen Blasting it's way towards Ribblesdale ! The final two tours were over the Welsh Marches Line and first we see 'Bahamas' dashing past Onibury in fine style. The final loco of the day, was no other than Britannia, where we see her climbing past Wistanstow with ease on her way back to Crewe.
A lengthy and challenging day, but it was just about worth it. August will be a quiet month, so we wanted to make an effort for this video. I hope you enjoy the video. - Авто та транспорт
Wonderful pictures! Do you work as a cinematographer?Your work is brilliant!
ive said it once, I will say it again
Steam Engines are amazing, and wonderful creations, diesel and electric could never
Many thanks
Loved that panned shot of the immaculate jubilee and she sounded superb, I couldn't hear any syncopation she sounded like a healthy diesel. Thanks for the post Mr Marsh.!
Nice one Liam and Phil well done
Wow, great stuff! Nobody can match this video, absolutely superb filming! Incredible timing with Tornado passing the Shed convoy as well.
What a superb turn out by the Bahamas people, it's great to see it in all its splendour. I can still remember seeing her regularly in the mid sixties when very few seemed to care and she was a dirty, rusting wreck.
👍Love it!Superb locos in stunning scenery. Beautifully shot.
Wonderful 😃. Thanks Liam 🚂💕
A remarkable effort in getting 5 different locos in 1 go fantastic father son team. Fantastic job. Richard
Thanks for the share,excellent shots especially the opening sequence in the mist and rain.
Awesome Videos, Well Done On Capturing All Five Tours :)
looks like the flying Scotsman is much comfortable with that whistle
I really like these locomotive videos it is so interesting to watch them in action
Thank you for showing this videos
Absolutely stunning video. Well done for capturing all of those steam hauled rail tours. :)
I love the title (and the video) I went to a 'bog standard' comprehensive, and as a 12 year old, I chose a 'Famous Five' book. As I was getting it stamped, the school librarian said, in a very disapproving tone of voice : 'Oh Russell!'[
Superb captures Liam the result of a timetable of military precision!
Thanks Derek, it was a late decision to go and nothing was really planned out, the video should of been a bit longer but had some issues along the way in regards to locations. Regards, Liam
Awesome stuff again :) thank you
A superb production Liam and Phil. It’s so unusual to be able to capture 5 steam tours in a day. A lot of traveling. Well worth it. Fantastic selection of locations. Enjoyable watching. We thought we done well capturing 3 steam locos. ( uploaded) filming Bahamas, Britannia and Duchess of Sunderland. Kind regards C&A
An incredible day, superbly captured by you both Liam, with excellent location choices....Bob
Beautiful country. Love the rolling hills and fields.
Great Video Phil and Liam , wow some great shots there , super to see all those locos in one day , thanks for putting in all those miles ,nice to have a quick chat today Phil , Steve B.
Stunning video, thanks Liam and Phil, and congratulations on a fantastic achievement in one day. That first sequence of 6201 is a brilliant example of comprehensively overcoming the elements and actually using the conditions to advantage (with no under-estimation of what went into the achievement!). Kind regards, Bob.
Superb compilation
Nice compilation. Scottie seemed to be struggling a little, but 12 + 47 was quite a load. Tornado's a 'beast'! Very impressive locomotive.
Juat awesome thanks 👏❤️😁xx
Beautiful trains.
Lovely video of all five Liam! :-)
Cheers - Edward
Excellent performance from Scotsman with a very substantial load. Tornado sounding fantastic.
And a bonus Freightliner Shed convoy :D Fortunately you were on the right side of the line there
Cracking selection of locations Liam & Phil , worst rain I’ve seen for a while at Arcow but Lizzie sounded superb.
Just extraordinary - if could raise two thumbs I would have. I've been saving this video to watch - and I'm glad I did :)
'Flying Scotsman''s whistle sounding cleanly? Whatever next?! All joshing aside, thank you for going to all that trouble to make a superb piece of film.
Very nice footage!
Very good video, big thumbs up :)
Wow five locomotives on five different railtours
But one day
yes on one day indeed
A 20 ON THE BACK OF A STEAM SPECIAL, now I've seen everything!!!!!
it was a pretty colour
Great selection of 5 superb looking loco's Liam, "Bahamas" the best looking for me.
Agreed about Bahamas. It was so pristinely etched in the ambient light it almost had the appearance of a model engine and coaches. Beautiful lines.
Bahamas is quite simply the best restored locomotive in the country. Looks as if she's come straight out of a piece of LMS publicity material!
@@thelongdrag9188 Bahamas and Clun Castle the 2 best looking locos on the rails
a fine effort in all respects
Fine stuff ! But as an observation on Diesel support, the two-tone green Brush4 looks great behind Britannia- but an "LT liveried" 20 looks, frankly, ridiculous.

I've been a steam lover all my life, but what is this insane fascination with Flying Scotsman ??
The A3s were beautiful engines but I am still inclined to agree with you. I worked for British Railways for over 30 years and travelled many thousands of miles behind steam locomotives. The one locomotive I noticed that gave consistantly high performance was No. 73068 I timed it at 95 MPH many times between Church Fenton and York with 10 vehicles (8coaches and 2 brake composites) I was bitterly disappointed when I learned that engine had not survived the great purge.
Scotsman - the only surviving non-streamlined Gresley Pacific; the first passenger locomotive completed for the LNER (only the fourth British Pacific built); first authenticated 'ton'. Scotsman's done it's bit. I admit that 1471 (60112) and 2750 (60096) had wonderful claims to preservation, but tragically Scotsman was the only survivor of a wonderful class.
Am I right in saying some of those new carriages on the Flying Scotsman are old 125 carriages done out in the Pullman colours? If so very classy
They're loco hauled Mk 3 sleepers, I believe.
How did the steam locomotives generate electricity for passenger carriages?
Regards, and thankyou for the video.
Garth.
That's what the diesel hanging on the back of Scotsman's train is for.
Yes. It's a pity the original generating system cannot be used today. Towing a diesel loco behind a historic train does spoil the effect a bit.
Regards.
Where else in the world?
😀
Hmmm
I thought it was going to be Scotsman, Mallard, Duchess of Hamilton, City of Truro, and a famous engine from the Southern Railway....bamboozled.....befuddled....
so whats famous about tornado it was not built by british rail only built this centuary its a piece of rubbish same as the others that re being built
