British Railways Mainline Steam Motive Power.

A quick Video of a few UK mainline Steam locomotives at work. The first train arriving is a BR southern region 'U' class locomotive with a Parcels Train, following that is BR Jubliee class locomotive with an Express Upline Departure with the final train shortly after a BR Black 5 arrives with a Downmain Express.

Filmed on at the Bottom Station of an O Gauge Layout.
The Owners have requested me not to give out to much information on the layout. Please do not ask whether you are able to visit the layout.

I am able to supply information on the Layout, such as Signal Frames, Track Work, Engines and Rolling stock, Signal Instrument Blocks and length of layout.

Thank you,
Great Railway Journeys.

Great layout. I was looking for a map of the BR railway system because I want to make a layout out of some of the regions do you know where I can find a map?

[GreatRailwayJourneys]

@aceplaya147 Thanks, I am not sure where you can find some maps regarding the different regions of BR during steam days, I googled you query but not much came up, but i have a large number of books and hard coppied maps about different regions and what sorts of locos, stock, types of signalling and stations designs where found in this region.

@oggy1953 You got that Right.

Great video. Do the bells signify a point change?

[GreatRailwayJourneys]

@TestValleyRailway

They are from LNWR Signal Boxes.

The signal boxes are supposed to be around 2-4 miles apart on real railway but are's are a mattter of feet apart making it sometimes confusing.

We have a total of 4 bell instruments Top, Middle, Bottom and Branch Stations

If you listen for the expresses 1 bell is call attention, 4 bells are the train code (being expresses) 2 bells train coming and 2-1 bells Line Clear.

I will make a video explaining how the bell system.

Bells are a really nice touch! Great layout

[atreewithnolife]

love the bells saw them working at loch carren signal hut, Scotland in 1972, the British have the worlds best layouts I think , this set up is a credit to them.

What do the bells mean in the beginning of the video?

[TestValleyRailway]

Ah, very cool. Takes it to a whole new level.
