- The big red machine known as 'Lizzie' is seen digging in over Shap and the S&C on the Cumbrian Mountain Express. The iconic LMS locomotive is seen first on the arduous 1/75 climb of Shap Bank in some great light which is showcased further down the hill ! A great sound over the notorious section of the West Coast Mainline !
The return leg as usual heads over the Settle & Carlisle Railway and we decided to play it safe and head to Birkitt Common knowing if the sun came out we would be in for a visual treat ! The Princess is seen from three angles as she powers her way to Ais Gill Summit with the dreaded draincock blowing ! We finish off the day with 6201 on Wilpshire Bank, as she's firstly seen slipping on approach to Ramsgreave & Wilpshire Station, she is then seen topping the summit which brings to an end one of our best day's in the Northern Hills !
I hope you enjoy the sights & sounds !
Another ‘Master Class’ in cinematography - Thank you for all your efforts.
and all her own work...no diesel loco attached to the rear..beautifully captured on video, thank you
the princess royals are my favorite pacific love em way more then any A1 or A3
Most beautiful non-streamlined locomotive (in my opinion!) - the single chimney helps greatly with that, and makes her performance all the more remarkable.
Agreed. The LMS Coronation Class was the last of it's kind
Thank you. for such a superb video regards kevin😊
Another excellent example of how to photograph steam trains. A Masterclass! I was on the train so this is a bonus to a great day out!
ahem steam LOCOMOTIVE not train a train is a line of vagons or cars attached together
What a beautiful video! The train, the scenery and the great video shots just makes for one beautiful journey. Thank you for creating, uploading and sharing! 😊🚂❤
You're most welcome. Thank you.
Sounds incredible!!!!!
love the colour.
I have just spotted this video and it is excellent. Wonderful scenery and excellent photography. I love it when they don't put a diesel on! I didn't even know that Lizzie was back from her rebuild etc. I love this loco as I had a Hornby 00 model of it as a boy. The model sat in a box for decades (nearly 40 years). Last week I unpacked it and took it to the local model railway club and they got it running again within 10 minutes. Good to see the real thing is back as well.
Stunning locomotive and beautifully filmed.
Thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish, thanks Liam and Phil. Great choice of locations and superb captures as always. The light at the beginning worked perfectly with the darker foreground. Easy to see why you regard it as a quality day. The single draincock blowing was recently described to me as 'LMS disease' but I think that is more than a little unfair. Kind regards, Bob.
RJAS 365, yes I spotted that, thought didn’t realise it might be a sticking point on LMS locos. My last time up Shap really was a struggle, much more laboured than this.
I loved the sheep doing a runner @ 5:43 . They should have stayed and admired the the experience.
My lad was on there and he had a great time, after watching your film there is no need to watch anyone elses. Your shots and choice of filming locations beat others hands down. Many Thanks and well done.
A fantastic sight and sound. And such majestic scenery. Thank you for sharing this terrific video.
Great days filming Liam & Phil , superb sounds from 6201 especially over Shap.
Superb....brilliant cinematography & well done "Lizzie"....congrats to the the amazing footplate crew that enabled this.....
Fabulous thank you helped by super light and autumn colours.
Great video ! Thank you very much-I love it
Well done her & well done you,very nice video
Atmospheric. Brilliant once again.
First Class - a pleasure to watch.
Thank you, and the weather was nice too :)
You have a great eye for a shot. This is yer actual art.
Simply beautiful.
ah my favorite pacific
Outstanding work and the opening shot is bloody awesome. Cheers Richard
Actually made a screenshot of it.
Trying to make a nice print out if it, for myself!
Maybe a good idea for selling prints?
Beautiful
Für mich sind Dampflokomotoven unbeschreiblich schön. Sie verkörpern Kraft mit Macht und Schnelligkeit. Es ist so schade, daß sie verschwinden. Sie waren kunstwerke der Technik.
Hi Liam and Phil 🙋🏻♀️. Wonderful , simply wonderful ... Thank you ☺️ 🚂💕
Stunning work as always from the both of you Liam...she's a wonderful loco....Bob
Hi,looks good reminds me of my time on the footplate as a fireman in the 60s I did 50yrs on the footplate finished my time out at longsight as a driver Regards Phil.
Interesting, Attractive Locations. Hard-Working Steam Loco. Handsome Train. Great Video. Thanks.
Brilliant video Liam and Phil. Fantastic performance by Lizzie. Superb days filming. Very fortunate with the sunshine which helps. Best wishes C&A
Brilliant from the fireman,looks like not one shovel full of coal has gone to waste
Excellent 😀
A lizzie at full blast pure magic
Excellent video ,lovely scenes ,grand work from you both.
Sounds like the that scene from zulu when they hear the Zulus coming to Rorke's Drift.
This is beautiful!
My compliments.
Wonderful video, big thumbs up :)
Magnificent.
Great video !
Nice video
Very good. Specially enjoyed the "landscapes" at the start! BTW I have subscribed to you, so keep them coming . . . .
Got some cracking shots there! I remember seeing you up on Shap and Birkett Common, we got lucky at Birkett with the sun coming out in time for it to pass
That's my audio experience of the week, I think. Great LF component after passing on the first shot. I'd love to see "City of Wells" doing turn about with 6201, so we could compare dB - who's loudest?
British Steam: the definition of Class X)
Look how hard Lizzie is trying to get up shap summit
I have this morning showed this superb video to ROGER BELL.
And if you do not recognise the name......SHAME ON YOU !

Beautiful locomotive, well shot! I have two questions. Why is she venting steam from the left cylinder on every stroke as if the cylinder cock is open? Why is the blow down valve on the right side dumping water during the whole video? Not criticizing, just want to understand.
Dirty,noisy,smelly thing-Magnificent!!!
when i was a lad they used to be banked by a tank engine based at oxenholme
Very nice filmwork, but too many mainline steam locos in Britain seem to exhibit cylinder draincock problems as seen. In this piece Princess Elizabeth also seems to be exhibiting the firemans side injector not picking up properly (water running from the filler pipe under the cab) or the Firemans having a bit of a doze as he seems more interested in waving than watching the pick-up !
I must have been lucky then as have not experienced draincock issues before on any of my trips, nor noticed it in any other video here. (Not having a go, just genuine comment)
Looks fantastic. What's the problem with the draincock - not read anything anywhere so must have missed it?
Nothing major, it comes on sometimes !
@@MarshSteamVideosTM OK. Thanks. I cannot understand why the draincocks face forwards - surely it would be easier to drain if they faced backwards? ...
It happens a lot on LMS locos. probably one of the weak Derby design features they adopted
I was on the train and noted the steady beat of the draincock issue as soon as any gradient was experienced after the Carlisle lunch break. It did seem to take the edge off climbing performance, presumably like running with three and a half cylinders?? Anyway, a great day and very good video shots at superb locations, well done Sir! (BTW, it was the first mainline steam trip I have ever done that ran and returned on time, well, ish!)
