Thanks very much. It was a pleasure to be there to see it. Just a reminder to all - To get this video up in high quality just add '&fmt=18' to the URL web address

Excellent video - 5* Looks like it's been a lot of fun exploiting the conditions for this train given the quality of the videos being uploaded - if a little chilly!!

Thanks. It was terrific light - I took a chance in Field No1 - everyone was on the other side of the line, but in these conditions the backlight works well. The odd thing is, Youtube uploads are not coming through with a Watch in Higher Quality option now - and the resolution on this clip is very good. it's slightly disappointing. P.

Tell me about it! None of my videos have loaded properly for days. I did watch yours in high quality by adding "&fmt=18" to the url.

Now, if only somebody had filmed in black and white!

Mike Many thanks for the tip on quality of resolution on the clip! That's much better, though it should be offered automatically. It might be worth my advising potential watchers/subscribers:

TO WATCH IN HIGHER QUALITY PLEASE ADD "&fmt=18" to the url.

Thanks to Mike NN2Blue

I started doing that! It was a certain Bob Masterman who told me about that little tip - so credit where credit is due! :-) I am having real difficulty loading anything today.

[slatgrille]

Mike - Well thanks to Bob too. Yes one day I'll have the courage to put one up in black and white - especially in conditions like this. Thanks again. Patrick
