Earl of Mount Edgcumbe passing through Haddenham Bucks at 6.45pm on Saturday 1/8/09 pulling Chiltern Railways Bard Steam Special between London Marylebone and Stratford on Avon. I'm 48 and I must have seen steam trains as a toddler but this is the first live steam I've seen in living adult memory - a special moment.

  • Sadly my only contribution to the voiceover was "yeah" and "yeah"! - It was the chap next to me on the platform who provided the commentary because he didn't want me to miss a thing! Shame about the helicopter hovering overhead as the train comes into view. Thanks for positive comments!

  • Nice video, but as an ex driver can I point out that facing the way you were, standing so close to the end of the platform, you would have been totally unaware of a train approaching from behind with fatal consequences. Sadly its something I saw many times on the railway. Please think before standing so close and get your videos and keep your life. Thanks

  • .Hope you must have got all that!! Brilliant local commentary nice shot of 5043  fontedeimarmi

  • Nice shot - you got her accelarating hard at speed so that's a great first view of the power and romance of steam!
