Brilliant video Matt. Wonderful gala. They had some lovely locos. Liked the triple header. Great filming. Kind regards C&A

[@MIRaill]

The triple header was certainly a highlight. Thanks for viewing

[@kineticrail]

Great video mate. plenty of action down there and the weather was pefect. I decided to go to Foxfield instead of this one but plan to get down there at some point

[@MIRaill]

Thanks, never been to foxfield but its on my wish list :P

[@kineticrail]

MI Rail certainly worth it mate. Excellant seeing industrials slogging it up the bank

[@MIRaill]

You see, i focus myself more on bigger name locomotives, so industrial ones kinda go overlooked. Looked like a great gala then
