Great video thank you. My favourite locomotive brings back memory’s from my childhood always loved the sound of the 5s good old British engineering at its finest.
Living breathing machines. How anyone could fail to feel the majesty and power in these fantastic manmade beasts is beyond me. Fabulous video, thank you for sharing and reminding me of my youth again. 👍
Nothing beats the pure beauty, raw power and visual proof of the power generated by steam locomotives! In Duncan/North Cowichan BC they still have a running 1910 steam train that takes you on a trip through the forest museum!
Ah, the sweet sounds of well maintained 5s at work David. No comment needed about the excellent video quality. How lucky are we to still be able to watch and hear such events? Thanks for sharing. Chris
This winter double-header in England is delightful as these thirteen cars are giving these two steam locomotives a real working load to pull! With excellent skill these two engineers are able to get the train up the grade to more level track where the speed can finally get up to where the horsepower can finally achieve its superiority over the train. And especially please note that the two firemen are not over-firing (using too much coal) for the camera... what we see is primarily the steam exhaust in cold weather... as it really was back in the days of steam!
Which brings up some interesting (to me, anyway) questions: how did they balance the load, the pulling force, between the two locomotives? Did they try? Did it matter?

Back when I was in my late teens and early 20's I worked on both of these locos at Steamtown Carnforth. I wasn't allowed to fire or drive them, that was for the big boys. I had to clean them inside and out. I was part of the Black Hand Gang. But I was able to ride behind them on the first and very early days of them being allowed back on to BR tracks. Stunning locos. Worked their guts out. I am nearly 70 now. Great to see them still working their guts out. ( in the very early days they worked together but tender to tender to Ravenglass and back )
With all the steam & smoke and reciprocating tie rods, rhythmic cylinders pushing the wheels around, and long string of rail cars, one gets a good perception of how much work is being done by the steam engine. Powerful. With diesels and electric locomotives you don't get a sense of the enormous amount of work being performed. Steam locomotives have a heart beat, and that's why we still cherish them.
Great footage and you can not beat the smell off a steam train as it goes past you as you look down from the bridge. It is a sight and smell that takes you right back. Once again fantastic footage of 2 steam giants
Eu tenho 55anos e gosto muito desses vídeos com Maria fumaça (trem a vapor) me faz voltar ao passado e relembrar da minha infância e do lugar onde eu nasci.
Yes it sure is a great bit of film, you guys have done a excellent job in recording it all, those two steam engine are just work great, thank you from NZ
I remember these locomotives at Jamaica Station on the Long Island Railroad.....when I was a young boy.... (1943) my Father told me they were disappearing from the scene and he wanted me to remember them.....and I rode on the NY to Boston run during WWII ........Nice memories...
I grew up in St. Thomas, Ontario, Canada. It was a large railroad hub in the 50s. We used to ride our bikes track side to wave and holler as these steel dragons rushed past, all noise, smoke and fury. Then one day we watched the first diesel go by. The engineer was all waves and smiles, obviously proud of the new generation of locomotives. We didn't wave back, we felt a bit sad. We seldom went to the tracks again.
You're standing at the plow as generations of your people have. It's raining and the mud is heavy on your grandfather's boots.Then, from the distance of God knows where, comes a pounding rave of black heat and steam that tears your world in two. Your side of the track and and t'other. The storm passes and takes the present with it, but it leaves the question... You are worthy of this, will you stand there?
Superb! I grew up in the steam era and have always missed those trains.
These guys are cruisin. Absolutely perfect. Big thanks for NOT adding music. I do remember seeing these when I was little.
Great video thank you. My favourite locomotive brings back memory’s from my childhood always loved the sound of the 5s good old British engineering at its finest.
Fitting tribute to one of the most successful, versatile and sheer hardworking designs in British Steam engine history. Lovely to see them in tandem.
This was simply a fantastic video. Very well done, and what a show. Thank you
This video make me to remember my childhood,what the beautiful days wear.
This pair has travelled all over the UK David, and always put on a great show...reliability second to none, and a much treasured pairing....Bob

I came here after watching "BIG BOY". At 3:01 they're rollin'! How fast? Gorgeous! Thx for sharing!💖
Fabulous footage - thanks indeed.
Oh my gosh, this is wonderful!
What an enormous, imposing, impressive, and mesmerizing presence these engines have!
I'm pretty sure I couldn't pick a Five out of a lineup, but happily watched to the end for the superb shooting & editing
Nostalgia of the years gone by . Putaruru to Rotorua New Zealand. Amazing.
*Nice video. Thanks For Sharing. Great footage! Best regards from Vietnam*
I love the sounds of a train or trains its so relaxing and calming too !!
Thanks for sharing this best video on Trains ever.
Perhaps one of the best videos on steam locos.
What an absolute beauty! And great work on taking those shots!
Fantastic video. Very well filmed. Thank you.
Excellent video. Gorgeous machines.

What a pleasure to watch, David! Thank you. Bob K.
Many thanks Bob - much appreciated!
One of the most beautiful train videos in the youtube.
Super compilation David of two of the most reliable locos in the country
Thanks very much Austin - they have put in so many memorable performances and I agree with you that 44871 seems a little louder than most!
Excellent video! You have a great eye for photography. Perfect angles.
O ho superb, we can not believe.this ,but mechanical engineering shows us, the perfection ....
The most beautifull You Tube video i have ever seen.
Despite daunting gradients, those two locos looked and sounded supremely confident with their load.

Great shots & locations. Bloody marvelous. ☺
Thanks very much indeed! Much appreciated :)
Linesider Video nice my memories .goes bk to 60s most steam engine working wooden body coaches
Eu tenho 55anos e gosto muito desses vídeos com Maria fumaça (trem a vapor) me faz voltar ao passado e relembrar da minha infância e do lugar onde eu nasci.
Superb compilation David. Great performance from the 2 Black 5s. They are so reliable . Kind regards C&A
Many thanks C&A - I quite agree, and can't remember either failing.
My gracious! Such excitement!!
Donald and Douglas, you are both really useful engines!
Yes it sure is a great bit of film, you guys have done a excellent job in recording it all, those two steam engine are just work great, thank you from NZ
Don Sinclair our equivalent would be an Ab double thunder in the NIMT possibly 608 and 663
Brilliant video. Always like to see Class 10 steam locos! Well done
Great video, thanks for taking me trackside😀
Excellent video, thank's for sharing.

WoW ! I grew up with steam trains invthe hunter Valley, NSW Australia. No matter which country they are in,they always provoke lovely memories.
É a profissão que mais admiro,e tenho muito respeito,parabéns a todos os maquinistas.
Magnificent video . A joy to view
And kids that's why black fives are one of the most reliable engines
Great footage of them you can tell in the 1st shot they were working hard
Thanks very much - they were indeed, it was shot near Chorley in Lancashire.

2 of Stanier's finest. As good as it gets!
I never imagined the 5's could run like that! I'm envious that you got to experience it.
They and the Jubilees were the mainstay of passenger work on the Midland Mainline in the 50s and 60s and they could both run like the wind.
Awesome video, love those Black 5's, sound absolutely fantastic.
Thanks very much - they are superb loco's

What a photography and beautiful sound.😁🙏

Iron giants sad that there ain't more of them on the tracks such a beautiful piece of engineering with a unique sound..i was born in the wrong era..
excellent filming

Brilliant - and some lovely lighting in those first shots on Shap.
This is very wonderful.Most steam locomotives were disappeared in my country long before I was born...
Probably the best video on RUclips
Your videos are amazing!!!
Thank you very much, that's very kind.
Fantastic film - you can almost smell the locos as they pass you!
