I liked the last shot of the goods. 2 Great videos on the whole. Does the NYMR use Lights ratehr than signals in some parts?

[MCCBewdley]

There are lights around Pickering but pretty much the rest of the line is semaphores

nice video mate, it is nice to see a4 moving, shame they don't run them down here more often

I believe 60019 is visiting the WSR in July with the Cathedrals Express!!! (according to steam dreams)

Brilliant M8, can't wait to see 60019 on SVR 19th April on SVR Pheonix, I have posted my Video of the last Sunday, snow was on the ground, but 4771 was out of ticket and 65462 failed!

[JBTEvans]

ah ok, thanks for that

[JBTEvans]

Yeah, I did see that advertised on the WSR site.
