Another superb compilation chaps. We had a great run wtih 30777 on this trip and it was a shame you couldn't wait around to get the powerful departure from Stratford and the climb up Wilmcote bank. Still, you got a cracking shot of the King Arthur at speed through Taplow. I would give this 5 stars if the ratings still existed and it' now in my favourties.
@hurleyfunbags Thanks mate, i'm glad you had a good trip. Lifting 12 out of Stratford unaided is some achievement for a King Arthur and must have sounded great. After Taplow we made it to Olympia to catch the unscheduled station stop, but had to bin the shot in order to bring the final edit in under the ten minute limit.
@EMuksteam Thanks. It's good to see this loco back on the main line as it was a regular performer on this route out of Marylebone in the eighties when i first started videoing
A very nicely caught series of sequences following this nice running 4-6-0. The weather behaved itself that day :) I thought I heard rumours speculating about 30777s disguise as 30453, but didnt think it was to happen. I'd love to film this engine more when possible.
I agree with Ryan, this is another really good film Martyn. This summer, 30777 will be hauling the Dorset Coast Express, Ryan, and so there are 8 chances to see her in late July, August and early September.
@NwsNoaaChaser Thanks for the comment James, 30777 certainly will be busy in Dorset this year starting May 22nd acting as banker to 70013 out of Weymouth.
@GreatWestern175 Thanks Ryan. 30777 doesn't seem to be venturing further west than Dorset this year at present but May 22nd acting as banker to 70013 out of Weymouth looks well worth a trip.
superb video, always a pleasure to watch such quality, 5 * and faved. Eggy
