Well that was definitely pick of the month if not the year Mike! Really great footage and super location, the GBRf crossover was magnificent, and thankfully luck was on your side for 884, perfect timing there with nice tones. The HST working was a great catch too. Awsome viewing, really enjoyed this, hope your keeping well and will speak soon, cheers Nick.
You are to kind with your comments Nick saying pick of the month for this video mate, yes I feel it was a lucky afternoon as I had forgot about the ROG 37 coming. I checked my phono just as I was about to leave and then thought shit a class 37 was just up the line so that is way I had a lucky time there, cheers Mike.
Wow that was a close call with the turbo only just avoiding a bowlage with 37884 hauling the 730 unit Mike. Good tones from the driver as well. Add to that the HST's and 66's and i'd say that was a very good 70 minutes mate. My Leamington video will be online midweek Mike, meanwhile have a great week and take care, Colin.
Colin I feel I was very lucky going to this location on that afternoon, as I knew the HSTs PCs were coming from Northampton which is always worth going out for even if it was windy, but I had forgotten that there was a ROG 37 coming until I checked my phono before I left. Thank you as always for watching my videos, Mike.
Thanks for this Mike, some unusual (for me) traffic and a good viewing for us .ps, the birdsong is very nice , you have an excellent microphone 😊 Keep warm , ATB Ian 👍👍
Thank you Ian for your comment, I was using a camcorder I don't use much as I should have sent it back when I borough it as there is a fault on it. Have a good week Mike.
Always a nice spot with different viewpoints Mike. Just think how much mileage or reversals could be saved if they created a short chord forming a triangle 🤔. Regards, Brian.
Awesome video Mike!! Looks like a great place to film some freight trains!! Was cool to see those 2 intermodals cross over as well was the rail adventure powercars and to top it off a 37 drag with a nice 2 tone!! Brilliant stuff👍
I must agree with you Jacob that I was lucky with that crossover of the two GBRf 66s, I remembered there was them adventure PCs come but forgot about the class 37 which was a nice surprise. Hope you have a good week down in Devon, regards Mike.
Smashing shots and captures there Mike. Nice sounds and liveries. Good location and action. Good Railadventure 43s, great crossover between the Gbrf intermodals too. ROG 37 was brilliant. Very nice indeed! Really enjoyed, thanks for sharing! Take care, have an awesome day and all the best! Jamie
Great stuff sir Mike. Nice to catch Rail Adventure HSTs and 37 dragging WMR 730 plus a crossover between 66753 and 66778 oh speak about 66753, I caught her on my area last week Friday. She worked 4L68 from Birch Coppice to London Gateway. Thanks for sharing and take care. All the best, Arnold 👍
Yes I was a bit lucky getting these workings in such a short time, oh yes 66753 I filmed that last Friday on the WCML going towards you. Good of you to send me this kind comment on this video Arnold, you have a good week Mike.
A good location there Mike. Nice views of the trains around those curves. Cheers, Jeff.
Yes its a very good place Jeff, I like to goive it a go a few times a year, cheers Mike.
Very nice Mike looks like a good place to spend the day cheers Steve
Its a very good place Steve but half a day would be enough I think, cheers Mike.

Nice mate liked the hsts bet you needed yer wellies to get there after all the rain
It wasn't that bad mate. cheers Mike.
That is one heck of a skew on the signal at 2:40. They are skewed like this to give better sighting for the driver as they approach...
Oh yes indeed, thank for the interest in my lucky hour video, Mike.
Always a nice spot with different viewpoints Mike. Just think how much mileage or reversals could be saved if they created a short chord forming a triangle 🤔.

Well yes but it would take a lot of land up and from a filming point of view it would be as good I don't think Brian. Regards Mike.
Great location for filming….and just up the line when they are climbing away
Cheers Paul.
