Cool video. I gotta say I like your narration, telling us the train numbers and models. Sounds very professional. A full Flying Scotsman set would like great on one of the VTEC sets.
+AaronArmstrong030792 Thank you very much, I'm glad to hear my narration is going down well. I had been thinking about a full Flying Scotsman set for ages and I really do think it would go down brilliantly with not only train enthusiast but everyone who would see it
+Tornado922 I went on a trip from Peterborough to York and back with a 225 on the way there and a HST on the way back. I agree that the 225 was a bit more comfortable as the seats were more comfy and the ride was smoother than on a HST. Also, it was surprising how quick you can get from Peterborough to York in just an hour and 15 minutes depending on what train you get.
A very nice video. The bridge there is known as New Zealand bridge. I fully agree the solar panels have spoiled the view but I can tell you from personal experience that the land there is of the heaviest clay and extremely difficult to work. I worked on that land in the late 1960's. The plane was definitely a B17. Looking to the North on the right side of the track just beyond the solar farm is the location of Tempsford Airfield, well worth a Google search. Most people cannot narrate a video in live time but I must say you do a fantastic job of it. Well done on an excellent video. Cheers, David.
Ah right ok, well thank you very much for clarifying that for me. Whilst it's a shame that the land is near useless for commercial farming I just think that if they are going to have Solar farms installed then at least make it appealing to look at. I have to admit that I never knew that there was an airfield so close to Sandy. Everytime I've driven around the area I've never seen a sign for it. Thank you ever so much for watching my film and enjoying it :)
Thanks for the reply. Please do some research on Tempsford Airfield. It was so hidden and so secret that Sandy locals didn't even know what had taken place there even during the 1960's. David. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAF_Tempsford
as always great video and audio the plane was ether a b17 or a British heavy bomber because the Lancaster is not the only British heavy ww2 bomber may have been a Halifax or Wellington bomber
fantastic video new to your pages but really enjoying the experience any future plans for doing the northern stations is Preston, chorley Blackburn etc?
Aswear To Your Question A full Flying Scotsman set would like great on 2 of the VTEC 91s sets with VTEC Logos On It With 91101-82205 & 91125-82215 And Full Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Livery With DVT 82210 And What About A HST Skyone Livery With VTEC Logos On It What Do U Think Of That Mate??????????
+Chicken Gamer well if you want good ECML action then Doncaster is a great place. If you want to catch Govia Great Northern then Potters Bar is a good spot
Reallt great video! :) I would like to see VTEC paint one of its 225 sets in the Flying Scotsman Livery in the VTEC colour scheme. It's a normal sight to see the USAAF Flying Fortress every now and then. Sometimes Vladimir Putin sends his Russian Bears in UK Airspace to intimidate Britain and attempt to start World War 3 and the Russian Bears can be seen anywhere in Britain. Anyway I'm looking forward to your next video! :-)

The plane was Boeing B17 Flying Fortress "Sally B", which is based at Duxford just down the road from Sandy.

Thanks for taking the time to capture and share this with us. The commentary is great really makes the video.
Your more than welcome, I'm glad you like my commentary
Great location and great video i would agree with the full liveried flying Scotsman but only stopping at Newcastle
What a nice place to spot, when you look to your left hand side, not the industry :) very nice video
It certainly is beautiful
Tornado922 My nan is a Sandy local! She lives in a housing estate near that bridge! I go spotting there a lot☺☺☺
Live near to the East Coast Mainline in St Neots. Still hope to ride the VTEC someday.
You'll find the 225 sets to be a bit more comfortable than the HST sets on certain sections of the line
***** that's the one I'd prefer to ride too. But one question, isn't the HST meant to be called a 125?
Yeah its known as a 125 because of its operating top speed. The 225 was given its name because of its top speed in kph

I like it :)
I have no idea what that solar farm could be for, I pass it when I travel with great northern
for whatever reason they've put it there it really does ruin the view
yeah i know!
I think the best tone u have had is the one at Grantham from last month. The one from the Dvt :)
Yeah I'd have to agree
There was a black and white car in the HST at 3:33, did you notice it?

Got to Ranskill Level Crossing on the ECML (near Doncaster)
Great video jarred gave it a like 👍
Just out of interest, why don't you actually go on the the station platform?
Thanks very much mate I'm glad you enjoyed this :) I prefer filming here because of the views that you get of the line heading north and south
just great
Thanks very much
as always great video and audio the plane was ether a b17 or a British heavy bomber because the Lancaster is not the only British heavy ww2 bomber may have been a Halifax or Wellington bomber
Thanks very much, seems everyone so far recons it was a B17
I reckon the best company are the Arrivia Crosscountry Trains. Mostly the class 220/221
fantastic video new to your pages but really enjoying the experience any future plans for doing the northern stations is Preston, chorley Blackburn etc?
do you have magic train number reading powers?The trains go so fast I could not read it that quick!
I just have good eye sight :)
plane looked like a dc3
Thanks for the plane suprise forgot to say that in former comment
yea it was a USAAF flying fortress
Aswear To Your Question
A full Flying Scotsman set would like great on 2 of the VTEC 91s sets with VTEC Logos On It

can you do a video in Leicester plz
once I've finished my WCML series I'll look into going there
the plane looked to be a b-17 flying fortress from ww2?
That's what everyone seems to be saying about it so far :)
+Tornado922 is their any places that you recommend to spot at?
+Chicken Gamer well if you want good ECML action then Doncaster is a great place. If you want to catch Govia Great Northern then Potters Bar is a good spot
Okay thanks
Love the clip but the Solar Panels there are dreadful
The first time I went there it was clear open fields
Reallt great video! :) I would like to see VTEC paint one of its 225 sets in the Flying Scotsman Livery in the VTEC colour scheme.
