Hi. I am a railway enthusiast of over 50 years ( with a mid life distraction break ). My main interests are steam , early / vintage diesels /electrics, and old railway architecture.
Also, having been a farmer for half my working life, I have a great interest in agricultural machinery, so these may feature in my videos as well.
Other videos will feature boats/ships, planes and nature.

FANTASTIC but cold FIRST day at the Great Central Railway, Winter Steam Gala. 23rd January 2025
The Great Central Railway ,Winter Steam Gala, day one. Cold and wet, plenty of steam about!
I had originally planned to go on the Friday , but due to the weather forecast, that Storm Eowyn was on the way, I decided to go on Thursday, the first day. Good decision as my trains to get there were cancelled on the Friday.
The services were worked by the 3 guest locos;
New build, 6880 'Betton Grange'
GWR 2-8-0 3850
GWR 0-6-2T 6695
Class 2MT 2-6-0 78018 was also working , moving wagons and empty coaching stock around.

Просмотров 22 тыс.День назад
During a day at Acton Bridge I noticed a VST move 0Z99 from Tuebrook sidings to Northwich, so thought this must be interesting, especially also knowing that 6E09 seemed to have failed around Northwich! So I headed back to Northwich station in time to see 69010 about to leave the station back towards Greenbank. After a few loco shunts, 69010 lead 66793 and the loaded biomass wagons back to Tuebr...
