(HD) The Welsh Marches Express' with 5043 'Earl of Mount Edgecumbe' and 5029 'Nunney Castle' 16.5.09

5043 'Earl of Mount Edgecumbe' and 5029 'Nunney Castle' (GWR Castle Class) are seen pounding through Droitwich Spa, north of Worcester in fine style with Vintage Trains' 'The Welsh Marches Express' on the 16.5.09. The tour started off from Tyseley that morning to Shrewsbury, then returned under steam via Hereford, Chepstow, Gloucester and Worcester. They are hauling a rake of 10 chocolate and cream GWR coaches.

Here the pair are seen working:
1Z57 17.10 Gloucester - Tyseley Warwick Road.

Enjoy!

With it's popularity as an engine, and you being in the Great Western area, it won't be long before it comes your way..

I certainly did Greg, but still waiting to see 5043, after overhaul...last time I saw it was at Tyseley as a rusting hulk from Barry that had been stripped for spares...Bob

Thanks very much Bob. Sorry you missed it, but at least you got some great films up North! :)
