Talisman Tour 2021: An epic steam-powered haulage mission: FULL VIDEO

On this epic journey through the Lake District, we catch up with a steam powered convoy as it transports a railway engine from Threlkeld to Bouth. FULL 40 minute VIDEO can also be watched here - landpowertv.co....
On the way, we speak to the people behind this mammoth haulage effort and get a flavour for what it was like to transport machinery before diesel power took over.

Great to see these engines doing what they were made for, in tractive effort they are nothing short compared to a modern truck.
But will a modern truck be in such working order in 100 years time?

This is the most British thing I've ever seen

[@stephengirling7859]

Thoroughly enjoyable. Great achievement!

[@FransvandenBergeMuziekschuur]

These machinese are such a beakon of hope. Of a people coming together to achieve something they would not be able without eachother.

[@conorgraafpietermaritzburg3720]

Lovely re-enactment!

[@waverider6214]

Nice to see this scale of steam heavy haulage going on on the road with the 3 road locos and what better challenge than the ups and downs of the lake district. Usually the only place you see anything like this is the heavy haulage arena at the GDSF. Hope you can cover any other moves these guys do

[@LandPowerTV]

Cheers Wave Rider. Hopefully, we'll be seeing a bit more of these guys and what they get up to.

[@tandemcompound2]

Is there a proper 3 hour video series available of building Talisman?

[@LandPowerTV]

There was a series which Morris Lubricants made with Guy Martin - ua-cam.com/video/TQ86ROAMOzk/v-deo.html

[@tandemcompound2]

@@LandPowerTV I have seen the 3 minute promo but not the full show. was it broadcast in UK?

[@LandPowerTV]

@@tandemcompound2 unfortunately not, I think they just did a series of short online videos, which was bit of a shame.
