Well shot, great lighting on the Duke, very enjoyable to watch.

Thanks - there was a footpath crossing the field some way th the right for the Duke. If I'd had time I could have tried that to lose the road noise. Chris

The best way to beat the traffic and be at all the locations is to be on the train Chris.

What do you mean, dont be sarky, LoL.

It's on the other side down the estate, look for my video of Bittern on the Talisman, you only get the York North Power feeder station in the way there though.

Can't see any dead end on the map. Are you talking North of the Ring Road at Nether Poppleton or the other side in the estate please? Chris

[yorksteam]

There's a place just off the York ring road where you can get the speed, it's quite close to the track though, but at a dead end so you don;t get the traffic.

Thanks very much. You plan for the sun and wind and then something else crops up! Chris

Great Video Mate, far fewer people around where you was, i think they had the same idea as me, go to York and see everything, shame about the Traffic noise for 71000, but some great stuff :]
