@sgtscott8900 - Yes it was an excellent day at Carlisle.

I;m glad you enjoyed yourself there like I did and the whole day went well. It was great seeing Scots Guardsman again but it;s a pity I could not stay to see it leave Carlisle.

Glad you like the video Scott, thank you. for commenting on it.

Brilliant vid Allan! You got everything spot on except the ignoramus at the beginning, I'm afraid I'd have given him a Glasgow kiss [off camera of course!]. Honestly I wonder if folk like that have a brain. Back to the vid though. I liked all the little clips of the loco crew going about their business and thought the fireman looked like the same one who was on the West Highlander with Mick Kelly with 44932 at Glasgow Central, but it wasn't Mick today. Great stuff Allan. Ken

@kenbrowne1947 - Thanks for your kind comments Ken.

Yes some photographers aren't at all bothered about what or who is around them as long as THEY get a shot. Mick Kelly did actually drive the train on the return and I believe he and others were instrumental in the organisation of the train which was for the benefit of a childrens cancer charity.

It all seemed to go very well indeed and there were more than the usual amount of people on the paltform to see this train. Cheers - Allan

@pinza55007 - Thanks for your comment.

There is always a few who are oblivious to the photographers around them. Also only too pleased to help with the number identification. Youtubes Mitchy754 was the guy with the DRS numbers in his book

Very nice to meet you and look forward to more of your videos in the future.

[pinza55007]

excellent video, spoiled only by a few ignorant people just walking in front of your cam. still enjoyed watching it. I was pleased to meet you. Thank you for your help in finding a spotter who had the drs convoy numbers :) liked.

@CoachAlex1996 - Thanks Alex for your comment.

Yes, pity the steam special was half an hour late leaving but as some consolation I had my very first ride on a EMT East Coast 125 HST set and I was dead impressed with the interior and the seating. I found it much better than the current day high-backed seating you get on the majority of mainline UK services these days.

[CoachAlex1996]

A very good video here allan, if only your HST was delayed so you could film it departing
