Another fine performance from 48151 and her crews.

 

Terrific video Austin the last scene was especially good.

 

Agreed, a cracking video!

 

Thanks for your kind comments chaps, You've got me blushing here, glad nobody noticed my little kick of the tripod leg in the second shot!

 

Great footage Austin and smashing to see you again. This is my shots of 48151 from wednesday . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Js8N6ID6kP0

 

Any news of today's Fellsman?

 

I have heard unconfirmed report that it is 5690 today vice 46115.

 

TOPS suggests it's Leander. Again info from a computer, not a real world sighting!

 

Running on time heading for Clitheroe with Leander in charge plus the sun was shining

John, nice shots of a wonderfully turned out engine, (although the link had to be cut and pasted). I don't think I have seen it run. Does anyone know if it is likely to be seen in the West?

 

which west exactly? 5690 will be in south west scotland soon which is where i am.

 

Well - running 20 early out of Clitheroe and just coasting along, chasing a service train. Think it got the red light and stopped at Whalley.

Great video, particularly Langwathby, but I've got to ask.................who the hell is Alison? :confused1:

 

Wasn't that the chorus to a song from the rather blue comedian Roy Chubby Brown - adapted from a Smokey hit -- oh no, that went something like "Alice, Alice, who the ? is Alice

About 10 or so mins before Leander appeared a chap stopped to ask whether a steam tour was coming as he'd enjoyed watching Sunday's "Waverley" near Appleby. I was already set up just the other side of a gate.
In the meantime he phoned a colleague -- worked for NHS, based on uniform, and I thought he'll move away if it comes / stop talking. But no, he carried on chatting.
If I'd been using my usual camera with the directional mic it probably wouldn't have picked up the conversation.

Appreciate your comment Stuart.

 

Whats taking the load this week?

 

I was told Leander, check out the Railway Herald online, they think so too.
