GWR Castle Class 4-6-0 5043 Earl of Mount Edgcumbe working 'Ticket to Ride', a steam rail tour from Tyselly-Liverpool Lime Street on 1st October, 2011.
This is the 3rd steam loco i have seen on the mainline in 2011 but the 2nd one i have filmed. The 2nd loco i saw was sister 5029 Nunney Castle on the Great Britain IV Trip in April 2011.
During the day when i was filming at Earlestown station i bumped into an old school friend of mine called Chris Sutcliffe or CJ To me and my mates & Colin Irwin. And we chased 5043 over the mainline from earlestown to 9 arches, and from Lea green to Runcorn. Sadly i didnt get footage at runcorn but photos will be shown at the end.
Glad you had a good day filming and hopefully one day you can go on a mainline steam special behind a GWR Loco. Great Video & I Love the Photos.
