  • I enjoyed that! Thatl'l teach you to get there at the last moment! I usually find a lot of puffing on my last minute videos and it doesnt come from the loco!

  • Thanks lol.

    I did get there in time but hadn't taken my asthma inhaler that morning. That, coupled with the exertion of getting to the location and the cold brought on a slight attack. It doesn't help that I'm unfit as well lol.

    I was going to shoot above the tunnel but wanted the shot that you see and managed to find a way down.

  • Thanks for sharing, David. It sounds as though you just made it. Did it chase you through the tunnel? Frank.

  • Thanks, Frank.

    Yes I can out run a speeding train through a tunnel lol.

    The tunnel is only yards from where I live but I suffer from asthma and the exertion of the climb to the tunnel and then the scramble down brought on a slight reaction. I also forgot how sensitive the mic is; hence you can hear my reaction to getting the shot of her coming out of the tunnel, which is what I was after, even though I spoke quietly and didn't think that it would pick it up.

  • Well, David it was a smashing video. I'm just sorry that you have to suffer for your art. Speaking of which, my watercolour of Leander is nearly done! Frank.

  • Thanks, again. I'd just come off a night shift as well so i was suffering twice over. as it were as I couldn't get to sleep until I'd filmed her coming through.

    I was intending to film from above the tunnel but managed to find a way down to that point. Apart form the great sound of her thundering through the tunnel, the bonus was that it was sheltered from the wind.

    Good luck with the painting. I hope it's coming out okay. It would be interesting to see it.
