Thank you :)

Thank you, certainly not too often on the mainline you’re right.

To be honest in my opinion steam trains are the best I prefer them to these modern electric and diesel trains

Me too dude, I only started to properly appreciate diesels in the last few years. Steam has always been the favourite for me.

Shame all trains can't be replaced by steam that would cost millions though

Yeah wouldn’t be worth it but we should be grateful for the amount of locos we have preserved

Thank you very much :)

I really appreciate that thank you :)

Thanks, glad you had fun. This one was an absolute rollercoaster for me because the services were a right mess. As you saw it got quite close at Pevensey & Westham. Shame 201’s no longer being preserved though.

@@thetrainspott3r i’m gutted about that too - with the affection people have for Big Blue, I’m surprised nobody has stepped in to prevent her from being scrapped

Preservation isn’t easy. I thought I heard something about the NRM considering one of the other 313s though?

@@thetrainspott3r they had originally had their eye on 201 but now allegedly want 121 but they aren’t committing to it. Preservation can de difficult but even preserving as a static exhibit or as a loco hauled set would be preferable ti having none at all.

Agreed, part of my motive for filming this tour was to see 201 in action one last time before becoming a museum piece. Another reason is I made the Sussex rambler headboard (humble brag).

Thanks, I’ve seen your video. I think we spoke briefly.

Thank you very much and thanks for watching :)

Indeed, only one of its kind too.

Thanks I really appreciate that :)

Thanks :)

Thanks very much, so do I. It’s taken me far too long to get one on film :)

Thanks 😊

Thank you very much :)

Thank you very much :)

I think it went via Tonbridge and Bromley South. You may also be interested to know that both of these trains will be coming to Hastings again on the 3rd of September.

Thanks 🙂

Cheers, I’m hoping to do the same.

@@thetrainspott3r Yep

Thank you :)

Thanks very much!

I’m glad you liked it. Thanks very much :)

Thanks :)

Thank you :)

Thanks mate :)

Thanks :)

Thanks I’ve seen your video, nice work 👍🏼

Thanks 👍

Thank you very much. I’m glad you enjoyed it, this video was hard work because she was so late every time :)

@@thetrainspott3r no surprise 😅

I see what you mean.

Hey thanks, she’s definitely a locomotive worth seeing.

Thank you :)

@@thetrainspott3r you're welcome 🙂

Cheers :)

Thanks a lot and greetings :)

@@thetrainspott3r no worries 👍 stay safe 🙏 and keep in touch 👍

Thank you very much and greetings.

Thank you very much :)

Yeah it’s been very active, cool that you got to see it too.

@@thetrainspott3r My shots are on my channel if you'd be interested in seeing them.

Wow that’s awesome, thanks for sharing. I’m no expert but there does seem to be a lot of respect for the 50s.

Hey thanks, I was at Eastbourne briefly on my journey to West St Leonards, would’ve liked to get a shot of it there but it had already moved. This video came out almost exactly how I wanted it so I’m glad you enjoyed it.

@@thetrainspott3r sadly there were a lot of inconsiderate spotters at Eastbourne - still, I’m ok with the footage I got in the end but it could have been better

@@AnthonyFurnival Sorry to hear that, I’m amazed by the total lack of awareness some people have.

@@thetrainspott3r well one bloke just stood right in front of me and this other woman. When she said “I can’t see you’ve blocked me” he said “well I’m staying here now”. Still can’t complain.. I got footage 🙂

Yeah I had a look, you got a great video out of it.

Cheers :)

Thanks :)

That’s great, she is a stunning locomotive.

Cheers, I’ll be sure to check it out.

@@thetrainspott3r awesome - thank you! It’s for some footage of it at Reading yesterday too!

@@AnthonyFurnival Nice, I’ll definitely give it a watch.

@@thetrainspott3r cheers 🙂

Thank you I really appreciate it, I felt that this video was rather clunky but it’s great to know that someone enjoyed it.

@@thetrainspott3r Great and thanks very much for replying to my comment. Have a Great Christmas and Happy New year. Take Care & Stay Safe.

@@medwaymodelrailway7129 Same to you mate :)

Thanks mate, glad you got to see her. By the way I’ve got some more info for you about the next Hastings Unit outing. It’ll be leaving Hastings at around 8:13 and will be travelling to Portsmouth Harbour via Tonbridge, Redhill and Chichester. Anything else you need will be on the website when it gets put up this is just to give you an idea of what’s happening.

@@thetrainspott3r awesome 🙂 I won’t be missing that - I’ve already stored the date in my phone haha! I’m really looking forward to seeing it!

@@AnthonyFurnival I’ll be on it, I’ll see if I can give you a wave.

@@thetrainspott3r haha sounds good - not sure which station I’ll do - might do Portsmouth itself.

Certainly does

It sounds a bit like the class 37's.

I really appreciate that, thanks for watching :)

Thanks :)

Thanks very much, I can understand your reasoning, prices can be ridiculous sometimes. Fortunately this one was only about an hour away from me.

@@thetrainspott3r for me I’d have had to go right into London (I live in Hampshire) - I did however see Clan Line yesterday (video on my channel if you’re interested) and she passes through my area again next Saturday - so I’ll be out for that.

@@AnthonyFurnival I shall have a look.

@@thetrainspott3r cheers 🙂
