  • I got to Vigo bright and early and secured one of the very limited spaces on the foot crossing. More and more people turned up as the weather took a turn for the worst in the Lickey Hills, wetting the rails and making this a spectacle not to be missed. As the rain held off, the castles became audible long before we could even see them. Enjoy the sights and sounds of this incredible climb.
    Thanks so much to ‪@blackcountrysteamvideos8021‬, ‪@crunchynutsteamfilms5043‬, ‪@LiamsLocos‬, ‪@FlatCapJack52‬, ‪@jamieleestransporthub‬, ‪@WestCountrySteamVideos‬ for making the 9 hour wait slightly more endurable. They all have videos up of this event so why not go and check out their channels.

      Has to be my all time best steam train spot. Typical the real thing didn't go quite as well as my practice shots but I'm quite pleased with it overall which is rare haha. Good to see you again, see you around.

    Spectacular video Luke. I was wondering how you get to that crossing on the Lickey? I'm hoping to go see the black fives there this weekend.
    Kind regards,

      It's just by where the B road crosses under the line about ⅔s up the climb. I expect to be there as well!

    Magnificent Luke I’ve caught them castles at stoke priors 9 hours after I saw d345 on the other tour

      They were absolutely bombing through Stoke Priors weren't they, preparing to run up the bank. I did see the class 40 tour but just as a blur from another train. Thanks for watching!
