24 years ago I first arrived in the United Kingdom. The first place I wanted to visit was Buckingham Palace and the Westminster area. Then I traveled the United Kingdom, Scotland, Ireland...I fell in love very much. These are on the first place in my soul, then Norway, Sweden, Spain, Croatia, France and Italy follow. But why the United Kingdom Wife and Ireland in the first place?! Because you know how to take care of your history in all areas. The icing on the cake are these magnificent locomotives and many others, pure P-40 Warhawk history. When I was a child, at school during breaks, I would take donuts and go up on the footbridge and watch the locomotives working and pass under the footbridge and "eat donuts with smoke". I can't forget ..... I am subscribed to you and I look forward to the next filmings. Thank you and good luck.
Magnifiquement tourné ce clip montre des machines parfaitement restaurées tractant des rames très homogènes, du plus belle effet dans un environnement très britannique. Merci à vous !
@18.01 That BBC Chopper was flying dangerously low and close to Flying Scotsman Just hope that pilot knew what they were doing but a very superb clip you put together also showing one of my favourites 46233 Duchess of Sutherland
Wow, fantastic! Thanks so much for this, what brilliant sights and sounds. We are so lucky in this country to have so many preserved locomotives, and lucky to have people like yourself that go to a lot of trouble to film them. So good to see these machines stretching their legs. Hopefully it will not be too long before you will be able to see Pendennis Castle out and about - reacquainting herself to British rails once more, even better both her and the Flying Scotsman meeting up once again. Absolutely stunning video collection, thanks again!
At around 10:55, imagine waiting for a normal train, not knowing this is coming, then BOOM, there it is. Afterward, you're not 100% sure you didn't just see a ghost...
Gracias Marsh Steam por éstos hermosos vídeos, hoy al ver Speed #2 me han saltado las lagrimas al ver el gran amor que los ingleses tienen por sus viejos trenes y locomotoras, me emociona mucho ver las locomotoras restauradas como nuevas corriendo a toda velocidad diciendo al mundo Eyyy... aquí voy , aún estoy viva, y realmente las amamos por eso, soy un viejo de 55 años y los amo por mostrar al mundo éste hermoso patrimonio.
25:47....aww.... so cute, that couple reliving their childhood for a few seconds. thinking back to when they took that train as children back in the 50s.
Albert Draper in Hull Yorkshire got the contract to scrap over 700 locos. Used to see them lined up as I went to work each morning, mid 60's. He spared ONE loco, a Black 5, and named it after himself. A lot of Peppercorns, like new-build Tornado went through his hands. All gone....
What can one say ..... Just wonderful. Thank you for all the time and effort for making these fantastic videos. Just in passing I now live in Thailand and these locos remind me so much of my home. Just WONDERFUL.
C'est très très beau !!! J'adore le (speed ) avec ( panache ) de ces trains !!! Un humanisme moderne de toutes les envies morale et sentimentales semble nous envahir les sens de merveilles ... bisou de FRANCE ! ( Vesoul ) le 09/12/17
This is a fabulous way tospend time ! No insults , or people saying they don't like you / Just great enjoyment . Thankyou very much . Keep up the good work .Patrick Smith.
It's wonderful to see that, when the steam locomotive needs assistance from a diesel, you folks in the Mother Country have the good sense to place the diesel at the END of the train. Here in the States, the diesel is almost always directly behind the steam locomotive... and sometimes in front of it! No, I'm not making this up!
The diesels are there for a variety of reasons but assisting isn't generally one of them. Most common reasons are for providing power to the rolling stock services such as air con and electric train heating. Also depends on facilities at the destination as, of course, many of the destinations don't have run round and turning facilities which were the norm in the days of steam, so may be used for stock handling and positioning. Sometimes depending on timetables the diesel will take the stock on somewhere else while the steam loco returns to somewhere different. No doubt in an emergency the diesel might be pressed into service, but that is not why they are there and they run on idle being towed. On some of the trains you can notice that an end carriage has been converted into a generating car for the same reason.
All I can say to the Controller of BR is bravo sir for taking the decision to allow these beautiful locomotives to once again stretch their legs on BR metals. And lets face it, they are beautiful....the smell, the sound, the sight of a steam locomotive in motion is unsurpassed. I do hope that this continues, and that more and more they become a familiar sight on the railways. They have absolutely earned that right.
Great video, chaps! I've watched a few of yours, on preserved lines and on the main line. All to the same 10/10 quality. Now, it may seem a silly question, but why do 'the authorities' seem to think a diesel is required sometimes, but not every time? Greetings from Southampton!

Almost all trains pull less than 12 bogies (compartments). Today's population need atleast more than double. These were wonder in those times. Thanks for the videos.
Has anyone noticed that when a steam train passes people like to wave - I`m one of them I just love them they have a personality all of their own. I can remember the Loco sheds at Rhymney Station where they used to do service them for the Rhymney- Penarth line
C'est vraiment la plus belle mécanique que l'homme ait pu inventer !!!!! Vive les trains Vapeur ! langoureuses machines à concevoir , les millénaires ! ce 03 10 18 FRANCE ...
Looks pretty in the video, I remember at Reading steam shed on a cold November morning when you line up in front of the foreman and he gives you a job card and written on it is to do a valve and piston overhaul on one of them big four cylinder dirty steamers, tends to knock the smile off your face, was so nice to be transferred to the diesel sheds when they opened up, much more pleasant environment to spend your day, these old steamers are long gone thank the Lord.
@Tabourba All the steam sheds I have worked in cannot compare to the new diesel sheds and facilities for their workers, like showers and decent cooking arrangements, more like home for us apprentices, depends on you attitude and upbringing I suppose !!
@@sadelsor You are comparing the facilities, not the locomotives. After working for many years at Derby loco. works on steam and diesel I can tell you that steam loco's, although heavy were mostly dusty dirt. Try changing a fuel injection pump on a Sulzer engine with 1000s of hours behind it. Thick black SMELLY gunk, ugh ! With decent facilities, given the choice, I would go back to steam.
They provide electricity and heating to the coaches. Also they allow the train to run reverse as there are hardly any turntables now. They do not push, all forward power is the steam loco.
The word 'Magnificent' was invented to describe a steam engine at speed !
Magnificent indeed and intriguing to say the least.

So I have to say ... British steam locomotives are already real works of art. There looks a locomotive more beautiful than the other :-))
😄😊😉😉🤩🤩🤗🤗👏👏👍👍
Funny isn't it, how you never see people with cameras standing on windy hillsides of chilly station platforms waiting for a Pendulino to come through.
Dear old 'Oliver Cromwell' always sounds so angry when it's puffing along at speed. A wonderful locomotive, though.
Excellent!
Thanks for sharing.
What can one say ..... Just wonderful. Thank you for all the time and effort for making these fantastic videos. Just in passing I now live in Thailand and these locos remind me so much of my home. Just WONDERFUL.

Wonderful comment. Absolutely agree with every word.
superb! what a wonderful unique asset these locos are. excellent quality video and sound. Thank you
The landscape, idyllic country side, quintessential silence... This is straight outta fairyland.
It's weird to see sections in the UK unelelectrified. Surely it's not that late.
Old but gold speed !
Nice video, but I'm just gonna say, from the perspective of someone living in America, those whistles sound hilarious.
THEN YOU HAVENT HEARD THE ONES ON THE NYC SUBWAY.
Aaahh, Spam Cans !!
Have added this to the "Trains" playlist on my channel so that I can watch it again.
The BBC helicopter at 18:50 is awesome!
CUM E POSIBIL CA ? unele locomotive să aibă numai un far .
They all look and sound fantastic, but nothing beats a Spamcan Unrebuilt Bullied Pacific at full chat! Great video 👍🏻
Couldn't agree more!
Magnificent! I still marvel at that pick-up of the panning shot of Tornado at 14min!
Yes, that is a good one.
Yup, It grabbed me too. Don't know how many times I've watched just that part of the video a few extra times. Excellent work.
Some wonderful clips there!
Excellent !
Excellent !
So British! Love it
Brilliant video!
Many thanks, installment #4 is coming out next weekend !

Marvellous compilation, but pan the loco, not the carriages, they're ho-hum...
I guess our trains are more on Brute strength, size, and whistles. Don't cha think?
Superb, nothing beats the sound of a steam loco and train at speed.
A remarkable collection of active steam power.
Thanks very much. Regards, Liam
25:50 that couple is remembering their time "that there was a day when this happened everyday"
this video is so amazing keep up the good work
Poezja i magia❗ Jak pracują te korbowody. Sprzęt z duszą👍
18:40 it’s on because the Chopper and the Steam engine are racing at this point
Blimey! Britainia sounded like she had three cylinders at 12:20.? 😁
Britannia stam angine express coming through~~~~~~~~~~~~
These coaches yellow and green are same of the Gordon in Thomas and Friends
Great shots and sounds, Thank you both
This might possibly be the best steam train video on RUclips, I loved it!
My best friend, OMG! So wonderful! I really love this! Thank you so much!
great video dude, well i hope other steam train like thomas, percy, Gordon, and the other steam train in the world still alive

Steam Trains.
Are the diesels along as backup or are they pushing?
Back up in case the steamer fails, but also to provide electricity to the coaches
Almost all trains pull less than 12 bogies (compartments).
Today's population need atleast more than double.
These were wonder in those times.
Thanks for the videos.
Are these trains only for special tour packages or for regular commuting ?
Thank you for filming!!
No problemo.
like you I too am British thanks for your reply and all the very best from Madrid!
Fantastic compilation!
Has anyone noticed that when a steam train passes people like to wave - I`m one of them I just love them they have a personality all of their own. I can remember the Loco sheds at Rhymney Station where they used to do service them for the Rhymney- Penarth line
The Day Off At British Railway In 2019 The Day Off At York Central Railway Museum In 2020
Just curious, why is it all Engine drivers refer to their trains as She's not He's?
Those were the days.
Steam locomotives at speed evoke some kind of primal fear in me because of the thrumming noise and fast reciprocating parts. Nice video anyways :)
It’s nice to see them out doing what they were built to do, rather than scrapped or stuck in a museum.
Wonderful collection
Thanks for watching & commenting Colin.

So very good
whats up with 60163's whistle? it sounds broken.
i dunno why but i love blasting 'Meme Machine' while watching this...
TANGMERE 😍😍
I enjoyed that.
Glad to hear it. Thanks for watching & commenting.

Spamcan81.
you know there's something about British steam locomotives that other Stop correcting foreign locos don't have
They all operate in a similar way, I guess our's are just more easier on the eye ?
Is it me, or do Royal (British) steamers not whistle much? (if at all?)
@Tabourba very interesting. I did not think of that. An excellent explanation. Thank you very much!
also all lines are fenced in and most crossing have automatic gates now
@@TheSorub really? I cannot imagine fencing in an entire rail line! That seems excessive!
its the law in the uk
@@TheSorub interesting fact!
Marvellous. Thanks.
You're welcome.
Clan Line needs her asthma inhaler - a sad blow on the whistle!

Why are there diesel locomotives 🚂 on the back of some trains in this video
They are sometimes used as generators for the lighting apparently
1:47 the whistle doesn’t seem very well
A fine selection of steam locomotives beautifuly filmed too :)
Why do some of these steam trains have a diesel on the back pushing?
They provide electricity and heating to the coaches. Also they allow the train to run reverse as there are hardly any turntables now. They do not push, all forward power is the steam loco.

Does flying scotsman still go to 100mph
No,sadly
tornado did recently, they need special permission to run faster than 75mph these days though
