Great stuff Bill, Just how outrageous was that working with the 20s and 73????

[cyclopsfilm]

@MrFireboxchaser It was great, just a shame it didn't run in daylight.

[clarkster92]

fab mr cyclops,a monthly digest,thought january would be quiet to catch up on notes and logs,but it was busier than ever before lol,good work

[cyclopsfilm]

@clarkster92 I actually found it easier to do a months worth in one hit, so will continue in this vein. I have 15 clips for Febuary already and only 3 are sheds!

[robertjamesgreen]

great vid. some quality action there. just goes to show that our network is reasonably diverse with a variety of traction. its not all sheds. thanks for sharing

[cyclopsfilm]

@robertjamesgreen And I'm sure I missed a few.

[scruffwood]

these shots are good like the long format diary its like watching a dvd but without paying 20 odd qiud for it.Keep on filming and well done sir

[cyclopsfilm]

@Jord37425 I knew one typo would get passed me :) I'm just surprised there aren't any more (cue the list some one will post). Yes that FL driver was well into it, even waving out of the window.

[cyclopsfilm]

@ozzyo1970 Thank you.

[cyclopsfilm]

@crompton33 I think I will, it's less hassle to one big film at the end of the month.

[cyclopsfilm]

@AndreiTupolev I'd love to see a couple of 37s up Sapperton myself :)
