PECO Loco Week - 24th August 2023

Visit to PECORAMA for the loco week gala.
Been a while since I visited the railway, previous visit was at the re-launch of BHLR loco ‘Jimmy’ back into service during the queen’s platinum jubilee celebrations.
My biggest of thanks goes out to all the staff for allowing me to do line-siding during the gala around Upsan Downs Depot and White Falls, along with the Wildway and Mine areas.
Thank you to Callum for taking me over to the depot to see the locomotives and visiting guests and crews. Was lovely talking to you all and being able to see the locos up close, as well as line-siding which I had only ever been able to do from the stations along the Beer Heights Light Railway.
Was a pleasure to be recognised and I hope you all enjoy watching this video as I did making it. :)
Some edits have been made to the final version due to arrangements that I had agreed with the media team, on a few specific shots sadly due to a complaint that was made about me filming by a visitor, but, luckily it was only one off, it did not stop me from enjoying the rest of my day and making this video possible.
Thanks again and enjoy.

A truly superb video thank you! Your presentation and videography (together with your editing) were superb…I watched in fascination and admiration! I hope you bring my Great Grandchildren to ride on the railway soon…I took their parents to the Seaton Tramway when they were children themselves…so next on the list is the Beer Hejghts Railway! Best wishes from Rob in Bournemouth.
