Some more RARE classic steam footage...and a little extra

From the same video I recorded that rare Flying Scotsman footage, I present to you some footage of British Rail Western Region at Birmingham Snow Hill.

Next some footage of an abandoned North Eastern branch near Leeds...before finishing with a film star.

Wow, this really makes me see the Steam Age in a whole different light.

Say, could I possibly borrow some of your steam engine clips for use in my model series?

@petersam4 if you like

i love the music, it represents the end of the glorious age of steam.

also, that engine at the end, i've seen it somewhere before, it's either american or..... i think it might be Australian? it looks very.... 60's, that sort of Retropunk that will always look cool.

@mattmanganon you are correct, it is the famous 3801 of the award winning film,

'A steam train passes'.

Steam locomotive are just so very lovely they really are like a living thing some times.

The music makes it sad, and reprisents the terrrible fate for the locos, diesels should be scrapped while the glorious steam engine lives on

It's this sort of thing that makes you appreciate steam even more, knowing that people just dropped such majesty for evolution. I found the abandoned station around 2:00 to 3:00 the most depressing. It was so haunting, yet so beautiful.
