Hooray, Alan has been scratching around on the cutting room floor and produced "Tales from the Hemerdon Bank" to blow the January clag out of our tubes. That was the best accompaniment to my Sunday cornflakes, the neighbours aren't best pleased though!!!!
Sights & sounds to warm my heart Alan. Your notes above describe the event spot on. In my brief experience working at the end of mainline steam, passenger & more so goods weight somewhat unknown could be a struggle at times when engines were 'past their best' end of life in many cases. Thanks as always for sharing .. 👍 atvb t ..
Was just thinking earlier about you! A couple of sites were posting yesterday about a certain Merchant class loco going to travel various rails... and I thought "I wonder if Alan will be filming it". Glad you have a video to fill in this present dearth, this is much appreciated, thankyou.
the first clip, it sounded like Tornado was taking it easy with Gloucester doing all the work, again in the last clip King Edward slogging with Cromwell was blowing off

Always great to get your insight Terry and glad I got my assumptions correct! Best wishes, Alan
Great shots - all of them. The climb of 6024 and 70013 impressed me the most in terms of actual speed vs theoretical power!!
Hi Hugh, long time! I have to agree with your sentiments hence putting as "the climax". Best regards, Alan

My pleasure Peter. Hope it's not too cold over there? Best wishes from mild Devon (12C today). Alan
wonderful video
Lovely to see the Duke. Thankyou.
You're welcome Kimball. Many thanks for your kind and much appreciated comment. Best regards, Alan
3:00 that’s the locos I saw during the 2021 season in July and it was the first time I see 45231
Glad to have brought back memories Scott. Best regards, Alan
@@Steamclipsyeah Alan
Very nice compilation. I don't feel like writing a story. You'll possibly get one, next time you upload.
Thank you Kelly, you probably need things to warm up a bit to get you going! Best wishes, Alan

@@SDE1994 Hi and thank you for your interesting observations. Kind regards, Alan
Excellent footage there Alan, really like the double heading off 71000 and 60163.
Hi and thank you for your kind feedback, I really appreciate it. Nice to have the L.N.E.R. represented. Best regards, Alan
1:05 Hopefully we will get to see Duke of Gloucester someday
Duke and King Scott!
@@Steamclipsyeah indeed
Never had a diesel pushing in days of steam
Fantastic, I wish i was there.
Thank you Andy for your kind and valued input. I'm glad you enjoyed the compilation. Best regards, Alan
*Fantastic !*
Hi and thank you for your kind and very much appreciated feedback. Best regards, Alan
I was stimming watching this.
With any luck, we should see at least four or five of those engines (5029, 6024, 60163, 70013 & 71000) back on the main line before very long at all 😋
I hope you are right Andrei, I am especially concerned about KE1 as it seems to have got lost in Crewe somewhere!! Best regards, Alan
I think enthusiasts should rename it "Hemorrhoid Bank" since locos are working their butts off to get to the top!
@@73Datsun180B Top of the class for that one! Many thanks for making me smile. Best regards, Alan
@@Steamclips Thanks for uploading such great footage for this Kiwi to enjoy over dinner!
