Great shots Phil. Love the Super D on the mixed goods and the eight beats per revolution of Lord Nelson always fascinate me. Chris

[981smithy]

@khankadet Thanks for watching Chris and I think you will agree the ELR put on a superb show.

Regards Phil.

[SatNavDan]

Lord Nelson is always a favourite of mine. Glad to see it working again after its failure at the Mid-Hants Autumn Gala last year. Also loved the beat from the Super D. Good one.

It's been a very long time since I last saw a train of four wheeled wagons and yet this was a frequent occurrence in the Peak District when I first came here in the 1960s. It was great to see Lord Nelson in steam and although I have seen it since steam ended, my memories go back to the sunny south where I once lived. Thanks for the memories, Phil, and a really great video that was enjoyable to watch. :D

[981smithy]

@fluoridekid Many thanks for your comment it is very much appreciated, glad to make your memories come to life.

Regards Phil.

[rab4472]

Great footage Phil despite the blustery conditions. Good to see Nellie back in action up north. regards Mike

[981smithy]

@rab4472 Many thanks for watching Mike, the conditions were a bit of a challenge but they well worth it to see Nellie on the ELR.

Cheers Phil.

[AndreiTupolev]

Nice seeing the Super D chugging along on Goods. The two Fives looked good as well.

[981smithy]

@AndreiTupolev Thanks for watching, the Super D was a perfect match to the goods train.

Regards Phil.

[mollsmyre]

As always a top class video Phil.Pity we couldn't say the same about the weather.

[981smithy]

@mollsmyre Many thanks Tommy for watching and glad you enjoyed.

Regards Phil.

[acw71000]

Good stuff from yourself and your son Phil in what were far from ideal conditions. And some very nifty editing to get the video uploaded so quickly. Good to see you again this morning

[981smithy]

@acw71000 Thanks Austin for watching, it was nice to see yourself today and I think you will agree the ELR put on a great show despite their problem with 71000.

Regards Phil.

[tolpuddleman]

As always, great shots !

[981smithy]

@tolpuddleman Thanks for watching and glad you liked.

[kenbrowne1947]

Great vid Phil in the windy conditions! I loved the goods photo shoot with 49395, classic goods start. The 8 beat exhaust from 850 is so unusual and I wonder what it be like at full speed? Probably just a big roar! I must visit the ELR this year it's a very photogenic line and you've certainly captured it to advantage. Thanks for sharing it. Ken

[981smithy]

@kenbrowne1947 Many thanks for taking the time to watch Ken and you will not regret taking a trip on the ELR.

Regards Phil.

[SuperWHIZZO]

All engines in fine form beautifully captured Mr. Dave; the 8-driver syncopation from the "super D " was almost hypnotising ! Thanks for the show , what sort of uploader do you use ,its quicker than that transporter on star-trek!

[981smithy]

@SuperWHIZZO Many thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed, the quick upload was made by only living a couple of miles from Rawtenstall.

Cheers Phil.

[apachenoise]

The weather wasn't doing you any favours Phil but youv'e still managed to produce a fine piece of filming. Thank you for sharing. Regards Dale

[981smithy]

@apachenoise Thanks Dale for taking the time to watch, we were just glad it stayed dry for us today.

Regards Phil.

[TheStephengthompson]

Superb shots Phil and Martin, the windy conditions did not spoil any of your cracking shots . Love 850 passing over the River Irwell in your first shot of her . Great to see you and Martin at Burrs ,regards Steve

[981smithy]

@TheStephengthompson Thanks Steve for your kind comment, it was a pleasure to meet yourself today and have our quick chat.

Regards Phil.

[molzips]
