Excellent vid, great locations and filming. I was motivated to search for 5690 because she's coming to the Weardale railway in October on a special - the first steam excursion up the Weardale line for many years! Many thanks.

You can't beat the thunderous roar of a Jubilee in full cry. Excellent.

Cheers. The Jub has been a great performer in recent months.

Many thanks Vic. Sadly we don't get many opportunities to see steam on Beattock, and with video the traffic noise is a bit obtrusive. I'm sure you'd have been rather busy as a fireman over there.
