Nice video mate. Were u there for the 175 celebrations? Its was a brilliant day. An empty shed, lots of activity and visitors. I've long admired your work.

@justandy333 No but I plan to go there on sunday though depending on weather.

[tommygrules4life]

why is the pannier tank blue?

[GreatWestern175]

That was what she carried when she worked for Stephenson Clarke Ltd back in 1963 till 1969. Didcot decided to put her back in that livery after a long period of restoration, its now currently in GWR green.

Fantastic Video, The Didcot Railway Centre looks good and I plan to visit it in 2009 some time.

Some neat work here Ryan. Suprisingly for me, I wasn't particularly blown away by Didcot when I visited it last a couple of years ago. Nevermind, some great stuff here mate! Top notch!

A nery nice sequence of clips Ryan. I think 3650 suited that auto trailer. 3738 has a nack for taking on the mainline diesels ! When i visited last year she beat a freight train too ! 5* .

Another excellent production Ryan, I was going to visit but pulled out when the 5043 trip was cancelled and the 6024 was also aborted. So thanks for going and sharing..saved me a fortune..ha..ha!..5*..Bob

[GreatWestern175]

Ah no problem, It did cost me £36 for by railcard in advance from Exeter to Didcot and return. But seeing as 5043 wasn't gunna come I decided to visit Didcot anyway seeing that I havn't been there before. I will return there again but mainly in the summer when theres more going on.

[robmasterman]

That's the trouble these days with the cost of fuel and travel, you have to weigh up the total cost for the day and sometimes it's just not worth it..cheers..Bob

[JBTEvans]

Nice one Ryan. I agree that it is expensive to get there, get in and to eat there. 3650 looks different again! Nice to see 3738 had 2 C/C coaches unlike when I went where it had a mixed rake. Very nicely edited I must say.

[GreatWestern175]

It was interesting seeing the pannier in Stephenson Clarke livery. And the other pannier in wartime black as it makes them very effective livery wise.

[JBTEvans]

Yeah, when I went she didn't have a smokebox number.

[widerangevideos]

I should have gone now lol, great video!

[bigben5051]

Nice video matey. Would you agree with me if I said 3650 sounds a lil off-beat?

[GreatWestern175]

Off-beat? What you mean by that?

[JBTEvans]

Yeah defo off beat

[Steam1989]

Well done mate. Very nicely put together
