Man, these trains are so cool, I really wish I lived in Britain. Here in the the US has only these boring old diesel-electric locomotives. :-(

I have always loved steams like this one much better.

[GreatWestern175]

Its amazing that theres alot of love and nostalgia for steam by everyone of all ages. Its more amazing that there are admirers from across the Atlantic and other places abroad that like steam in Britain. We have faced some difficulties in keeping steam on the mainlines in Britian but we do what can to keep them running :)

[AmtrakSurfliner768]

Thanks!

I'm glad the good old fashioned Steam locomotives are still running to this day! Down here, there's only one left. Only runs 2 times per year, so I'd love to go railfanning in Britain. =-)

All steam engines need to stay in service is a bunch of dedicated enthusiasts. The love for them helps the great Steam Locomotive live on! =-) I love the whistle at 2:45, That was a great catch, you're a great railfan. =-)

[GreatWestern175]

What I did forget to mention to you and all is that what you see here might make history in years to come, as all of that route is to be electrified, meaning all that nice rail scenery you see here will be lost forever due to overhead wires and iron poles holding them :(

[AmtrakSurfliner768]

Ohh, I got to get over there, then! I was always planning to railfan in Britain before electrical trains replace beautiful trains like the King and Bristolian. I need to make a journey to England soon.

[390904902]

Don't worry, the East Coast and West Coast main lines still have steam running under the wires from York and Crewe :)

What's more worrying is that the tour companies don't always have the means to make enough money to run these trains.

You get about a bit Ry! What a lovely film. Favorited and 5* Yet another special missed through working away. I am watching at Wembley arena. Once again one of my favorite clips of the year.

[GreatWestern175]

Ah yeah with a car, it can get you around alot. So I'l be heading for different places out of the south west in future.

[trainsbirdsandcars]

Excellent 5*

[robmasterman]

Absolutely brilliant Ry, the King looks and sounds better that it's done for a while...superb camera work as always...5* Bob

[GreatWestern175]

Thank you once again Mr Masterman, she is much better now than before as I was concerned that day. She ran well by all standards.

[NwsNoaaChaser]

Great video Ryan. I believe that I was stood next to you at Didcot. That's what made it the 5* alone :) What a fantastic series of shots!

[GreatWestern175]

Ahh so you was the one beside me when getting the King at Didcot, I had a thought you was a fellow youtuber aswell. It was certainly a struggle not knowing which line she would be on till the last min!

[NwsNoaaChaser]

I must concede, that was very good service at the station. Having said that, we could hear 6024 from a long way off!!

[HughFromAlice]

One of the best steam videos I have seen in a long time. All the shots were really good but I can't say it better than NN2Blue - "The stillness of the air ......"!!

The location was great witht the height of the bank being just right to give a sense of looking up and power yet you were able to get a really long pan in.

In the last shot, love the way that the guy in the beanie takes a reflexive step back in response to the high speed of the train as it powers through.

:-) ***** Fav'd

[GreatWestern175]

Ahh that shot at the beggining was a tricky one to do mainly 'cause the wind was in the wrong direction meaning you dont hear the engine well at start. The night sequences were good to do as the lighting helped out. Cheers for commenting

[EMuksteam]

Excellennt video clips.You certainly travelled some miles & some luck to capture at though locations 5*

[GreatWestern175]

Hmm did clock up a few hundred miles getting to these places and getting back home, was pretty expensive travelling but still well worth to go and get this rare run to Paddington.

[NN2Blue]

Excellent compilation - the stillness of the air in the first shot was expertly captured! 5* - Mike

[Steam1989]

Well done mate

[hstman14]

Absolutely stunning video Ryan!
