Sorry Bob, it was typo... Scout Green was captured this afternoon but wasn't uploaded. I've changed the text to match the video. Simon

V.Good Video. Youre Videos always amaze me with their quality. Also if u are not busy on the 29th of July would it be possible for u to film a video at the worth valley? it's my birthday and every time i have been on a train (Mainline/heritage) i have always found a vid of that day to remind me of my b.day.

You know its ironic that Tornado broke the Shap record during that run (if I'm correct) having just read in Heritage Railway magazines latest issueI never knew that happened.
