Locomotive off at Leicester 6/4/2024

After a failed attempt at filming the Wellingborough 11th bus rally, my eldest son and I decide to take the East Midlands Railway train up to Leicester to see a LMS Stanier Class 5 Steam locomotive which was running 'The Worcester Steam Express' operated by the Railway Touring Company. The steam loco is taken off the railtour and then shunts its way into Leicester L.I.P (Locomotive Inspection Point). Ryan MG caught the railtour in the morning with his nephew. Sadly the footage is really shakey but I have included two epic moments including his nephew getting on the footplate.

Great video! I was on the train! You can see me giving you a wave at 01:36.

Ah at the door window. Oh days, as if I was that close to you. In a way I'm glad I didn't spot you. I would have been star struck and flopped the entire video 😂.

Why did it only have one coach when it unhooked, oh I saw 6 intercity 125 freshly painted coaches and a buffet car in the middle of nowhere in the fens east anglia, on a farm literally on the tracks fenced off, immaculate, got pictures do you know what they are doing
