Enjoyed that. You have a lovely run.
Glad it's not just my train that randomly derails when your trying to film something.

A super film, thanks for sharing

loverly.. going up through the cutting with the trees in the back ground, clear blue sky.. bliss

 

[owlpool]

Thanks.
The wagon derailed when the camera fouled the viaduct.
Must pay more attention to the loading gauge

Very nice, I love the sound.

I get a strange sort of 'under water' effect here. Is it just me? What causes that?

Thanks, I was pleased with the sound - demos the chuffer well I think
The picture seems to waver a bit. Maybe the auto focus or the marked light contrasts, I don't know

Good chuffer sound, that. And nice to see trains out in the garden early in the year.

Lovely Vid, nice to have real scenery rather than Fences which most of us urban types sadly seam to have.

Just one point, when the Stainz passed with the Gravel Train, how did the Train Crew managed to exchange the Single Line Token so fast? Or does the line have a fancy expensive CTC System?

Fair point. I think what they usually do is the fireman jumps off at the upper points, runs down the up platform, exchanging tokens on the way, and rejoins the Stainz at the lower points.
He's an excellent sprinter, as his other job is a sheep farmer who appreciates the beauty particular to his fitter charges.
He is, however, a little camera shy.
