What I was expecting to be 7029, was actually 5043.
We start with a blitz up the lickey, unfortunately the 47 on the back was opening up a little bit but I’m guessing only to remove its own weight from the train, great sound as she climbs Britains steepest mainline bank, 1 in 37.7.
I was tempted to chase it, as it stopped in Birmingham new street for 29 minutes before continuing to Stratford, but didn’t think it would be worth the effort, so we head to Hatton bank, for the Stratford - Birm Shakespeare express, with great sound from both engines up the bank.
We made a frog leap to claverdon for the return of that Shakespeare, expecting it to be the 47 leading, but was actually the tender first earl! Nice shot of her whistling past.
Finally some great sound through jewellery quarter tunnels.
Enjoy!
Music to my ears.
Glad you enjoyed!
Great video Toby!
Thanks joe!
Great video Toby :)
Thanks mate!
Nice video 👍👍👍😎
Thanks!
I caught up with the earl at stoke works junction
And it’s very rare to have the Shakespeare express to have start at the different locations first Worcester and now Leicester as their new starting points instead of starting at snow hill as usual
Yes! Was rare!
@@Tobys_Trainsyeah we don’t normally have the Shakespeare express ever come here at bromsgrove at all
So that means this year Leicester and Worcester are the new starting points for the Shakespeare express
I got it at Wilmcote station 📸📽️👍😎
Nice! I’ll check the shot out now!
Great video!
I had to skip through it as I’m watching nothing for ages until the train comes within 30ft of the camera.. you should neutralise your zoom on your camera more
Thanks, video started early as we here were faint sounds of her
