Quality video.

Thank you Andrew. Not even I could have made too much of a mess with such a loco in such scenery (though, as ever, it's not perfect). Chris

Chris, Just catching up on the older work, and this is an excellent example of how things should be done. The winter is certainly the best time to film and this proves it. Well done!

[khankadet]

You really should get out more - sitting indoors watching this old stuff :-);-)

Winter days with little wind and the exhaust just lazily hangs there. Thanks for the kind words. Chris

Dont put yourself down so much Chris. Your stuff is amongst the best. Thats why I used the opening to this vid on '71000 The Insider Collection' and thats sold hundreds. The mist on the viaduct made the intro unforgettable. Its what trailers the whole video. 10 stars, er 5 stars, LoL.
