Generations of Somerset & Dorset motive power

I must say Prussian Blue certainly suits that old girl!

Oh to be in the back garden at Charlton Marshall again, if only i knew what delights i was witnessing at the time as the S& D locomotives thundered by, brilliant piece of film.

A delightful film with such a wonderful atmosphere. Thank you so much for posting this.

Great video...I wish to see this at Midsomer Norton on the real S&D!!!

[mlcmuk]

A great film on the basis it lets the trains and locos do all the work - no fancy editing, no zooming in and out and thank goodness, no music!

Great stuff!

Can't wait to go and see the WSR for myself.

@mlcmuk I'm glad you've mentioned that, as I have seen that in some films that do that sorta stuff, unnescessary zoom-ins when a loco approaches and pop/rock music that ruin films of steam, that really embarresses me alot.

I also wish you luck on coming down to the WSR, hopefully you'l enjoy :)

Great video..is this the rebuilt S&D line starting at Midsomer Norton south??? I thought one cutting near Chilcompton was in-filled and one tunnel blocked up??

[GreatWestern175]

Uh ha, no. This is the preserved West Somerset Railway. The line has a preserved S&D 8F aswell as a S&D Trust based at Washford. So the line has in recent times played a part in the its legacy.

I'm now beginning to imagine what the S&D used to sound like!
