LNER A2 60532 Blue Peter Returns To The Mainline! Inaugural Run. (London-York) 13/07/24
On the 13th of July 2024, LSL locomotive 60532 returned to the Mainline for the first time since the late 90's. Now freshly overhauled and a lovely blue, Blue Peter ran from London King's Cross to York.
We first head to Grantham, Lincolnshire to see the tour passing through and it was very busy with people constantly swapping platforms. Apologies for all the voices you may hear, was hard to avoid.
Finally, we head to Doncaster where once again, many people had turned out to see the A2 on its Mainline return. passing through on a double yellow, it was moving along quite nicely, I often get engines crawling through so I'll take this!
shout out to ‎@blackcountrysteamvideos8021 for bumping into him and his friend today, enjoyed the banter and company!
I hope you enjoy this video. #steamtrains #train #trainspotting #railway #bluepeter #britishrailways #popular

SR 34067 Tangmere - Scarborough Spa Express BOWLED!! - 27/06/24
zhlédnutí 258Před měsícem
On the 27th of June 2024, (WCR) ran their yearly Scarborough Spa Express from Carnforth to Scarborough via Woodlesford. The tour was pulled by Carnforth's workhorse of 2024, the Spam Cam, 34067 Tangmere. We head to Cononley just a few miles from Skipton, North Yorkshire where I take a bit of a gamble as a passenger service is due around the time Tangmere is due and it was just my luck that both...

On the 3rd of June 2024, Saphos Trains ran a private charter from Crewe to York and return. We head towards Huddersfield, a place that steam rarely ventures through nowadays and since it's old stomping grounds, I chose to head there for old times sake to watch the tour make it's way through platform 8. I did want to film it emerging from the tunnel but with all the scaffolding up due to works a...

On a very hot 11th of May 2024, LMS Black 5 was at the helm of the Cumbrian Mountain Express from Carnforth to Carlisle via Shap and return via the Settle and Carlisle Railway. We head to a very bright and sunny Garsdale where the Black looks to be being pushed by the diesel on the back, likely due to the warm day and to not take any chances. I hope you enjoy this video.

    It's hard to believe that the world's 1st Bullet Train System's (Shinkansen = New Line) engine, though the engine displayed was a 2nd generation, is in the UK's Nat'l Ry Mu at 6:27. The man who had conceived n completed this world's 1st system in 1964, Hideo Shima (島 秀雄) which due to the hi overrun from the estimated cost was condemned by the authorities in Japan but was honored later by the British for the recognition as the 1st. It was not just the fastest train speed at that time but the entire railway system - Management of the railway network, controls, operations, and the hardware - radar dome at front (bc. the train is too fast for the driver to react if there is a danger up ahead), sophisticated shock absorbers, elec. generator relays, ... etc. Here, I was just browsing for the World's 1st 100mph spd breaker, the Flying Scotsman A3 photos, specifically, to c how her below boiler running board's front end of the firebox and ashpan juts out and connected. I think the ashpan for this engine is not at the edge of the firebox but it's between n below the rear truck. And, would like to know how the front end of the rear truck is constructed. Is this truck articulated or fixed to the engine's frame? I need to know these details for my 1/32nd scale live steam A3. But, un4-2-8ly, the photo of her under the running board there in many many utube videos and still photos on-line r too dark, underexposed! And, besides, everyone shoots the same photo of this A3 = front superposed n they don't realize dat everyone is doing the same, viz., "Me Too" shots. Heck! So disappointing. And same shots everywhere for any other locos of the UK, USA, Ger, Japan, ... Pls be more creative, no more "Me Too" shots. So, if any photographer out there in the UK, please shoot photos of these details - Front, Rear, Broad side, a bit angled shots, from the bottom, etc for 2D and 3D views. Please place the photos at railpictures.net (free viewings) with the URL address here at this comment section or any other public free photo locations. No facebook, tik-tok, reddit, etc. Subscribed w thumbs up, Thx, From the USA
