Uphill & Down Dale: Northwest Mainline Steam 2007-2011

Excellent stuff David, just sent an email re postage to the colonies. As for the music, I love that track since you first posted it on one of your annual retrospectives and given that you also wrote and played it makes it even better. Even your latest effort with the winter CME the music was totally appropriate linking the S&C and WCML scenes.

The videography is excellent but music in these pieces is never a good idea. The sound of the steam and the wind and anything else that is going on, sheep, cows, even kids is the real deal. Just saying, thanks for sharing your work and I too wish that you find recognition.

@984francis Thanks for commenting and sharing your opinion. Please note that this is the 1 minute introduction to a a 2hr14min video which contains no other music. The music is merely there to piece this together, without which it would be a disjointed collection of loco sounds.

@Linesider1 Got it, thanks for explaining.

I have just told my girlfriend what she will WILL be buying me for my birthday in April David :-)

It looks tremendous. Very, very well done. I hope that it gets picked up professionally and that it sees the start of a new career for you.

All the best, Tim.

@ashbytimuk Many thanks Tim, and thanks for all of your supportive comments which were part of the reason for taking the plunge - exciting times! And today I was out for 44871 and 45407, so volume 2's already underway ;-) Best wishes, David.
