GWR 7029 - The Rolling Thunder On The Merchant Venturer + A4 Bonus !

- 7029 Clun Castle puts on a vocal display on the Merchant Venturer from Solihull to Bath & Bristol on a midweek Christmas Excursion. The outbound scenes start at Harbury where the late running Castle is seen bursting out of the short tunnel portal with a bit of help from the rear to regain time. just a few miles further up the line we see Clun roaring along at speed and sounding wonderful.
Having watered at Oxford we were able to catch the tour again, this time at Culham where the sound of Rolling Thunder was well showcased with the Castle putting down the power through the station and then heading away from the station towards Didcot. An impressive show as always from the flagship locomotive from Tyseley.
The return leg would see us head to Dorridge for a swift arrival and departure. This was followed on from a shot just up the line at Bentley Heath crossing. Unfortunately a nearby house alarm was sounding off through the proceedings and somewhat compromised the audio, so I've had to shorten down that scene. Regardless, it was still a superb sight and sound as 7029 roared away from Dorridge on the dying embers of the trip.
To finish the video the off there is a bonus shot of 4498 Sir Nigel Gresley returning Home to Crewe after completing its stint down south. The A4 can be seen accelerating though Lichfied Trent Valley after being held for a stopping Pendolino at Platform one. Not a bad way to finish off the year for us, as it now looks like another bout of strikes will cancel any of my other plans.
I hope you enjoy the video and we wish all of our Subscribers and viewers a Merry Christmas.

Can't think of anything better to do than start the day than watch a great video of steam trains when it's -25C outside.
Very cool and enjoyable video of the steam train. Have a great rest of your day.(Steve)
Wonderful footage as always! Thank you so much for all of your films they cheer me up no end, especially during my long illness.
Timothy, you're most welcome. I hope you're back on your feet soon.

Brilliant footage. Thanks.
Fantastic video, every time I see steam locomotives I go back to my school days where we get mesmerizing experience upon seeing steam locomotives, same effect I got on witnessing this video. Really appreciate your efforts. Thanks a lot!
Many thanks, you're most welocome.
Fabulous quality vision and sound, thank you!
Many thanks Peter.
Very nice video Liam and Phil :)
BRILLIANT!
Brilliant shots and sound, thanks. Diesel didn't sound too healthy though. Love the shots at Dorridge and Bentley crossing, my old home. With just a light load Gresley sounded great too. MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄🎄🎄
Excellent video Liam and Phil. Great display from Clun. She put on a fantastic performance superbly captured. A great loco . A nice bonus of SNG to finish off an enjoyable watch. We capture SNG at Bristol, it was nice to see her in the Black livery. Kind regards C&A
Thanks C&A. That could well be the last time we see SNG in its black livery.
Brilliant video!
Looks great mate
Thanks mate.

Music to my ears.
Strange how some people think they are messy smelly anachronisms that aren't worth a second glance, while others happily stand and watch - - that applies to steam engines, too!
Absolutely superb guys, one of the best videos I've seen, thank you both for making the effort.
Your very kind words are much appreciated. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Always been a 'King' man but these will do!!
Not long to wait now for a bit of King action.
4:32 - oh deer....sorry had to be said! ;-) Lovely weather, lovely shots. Is it just me or does the 47 sound a bit knackered?
David, good to hear from you. I hope we can tempt you over for the double headed castle's next year > I Hope you're well ?
@@MarshSteamVideosTM I hope to get back to see something like this :-D
Did you get my email about a microphone?
No sorry, you can ask here ?
@@MarshSteamVideosTM I did reply but the message seems to have gone, maybe it’s in the spam messages? Or check your email spam in case my email is there?
@@MarshSteamVideosTM Can you leave me an upto date email so I can contact you, its about a 3D microphone give away
That class 47 did not sound to good.
Steam railways are no.1 as far as I'm concerned.
