Loved your video 5 stars. I live "down under" and have been to England twice (2000-2007) and have missed seeing the Worth Valley operating and both times it was glorious weather. Stayed in Haworth, great pub there the King's Head.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. I'll remember the King's Head next time I'm up there. Not such glorious weather on this visit I'm afraid, but I've been very lucky on past visits.

There is a 2-10-0 variant on the North Norfolk -90775. If you look at the 'Other Railways' page of my main website you will see a clip from last autumn.

Hey Mike,

I believe we did too, well it was about 10 - 15 minutes after 70013 had gone up the bank so maybe you had moved there for 90733 and was just watching the footage back. I did enjoy the gala, hope you did too and its not always as dull up here, well actually both Friday and Sunday saw some good sunny spells. Thanks for the comments about my footage much appreciated.
