Re-live the halcyon days of big steam locomotives working heavy holiday trains over the formidable grades of the Somerset and Dorset Railway (England. The West Somerset Railway -Spring Steam Gala- brings together many of the locomotive types that once worked the S&D between Bath and Bournemouth. To complete the scene the WSR stations take on the identities of long closed S&D stations. Whilst visiting this beautiful part of Britain I also take a quick look at the Lynton & Lynmouth cliff railway and the Lynton & Barnstaple narrow gauge railway at its Woody Bay headquarters, where I bump into another film maker Michael Dan creator of -Admiralscorner- on YouTube

You're getting the hang of the drone nicely, splendid shot of Blue Anchor. They just need to find some way to muffle the sound of them now. Lovely scenes of preparation at Minehead, though it rather looks (14: 12) as if 53809 had been parked underneath somewhere the seagulls congregate, doesn't it.

You certainly were up early for those Minehead shots! It was great to see those refreshingly different Drone shots along the line. The ground level shots were also different from the norm. And fun to see us both at Woody Bay station from the air at the end!

Hello Tim, like the manner you use drone as additional 'dimension' to get new perspectives not to film everything without thinking about sense or to show every acrobatic trick. Heinz

why show -THE PINES- in the west country when it is or was a LONDON to HOLLYHEAD express? I used to travel from CREWE to BLETCHLEY on in 4 times a week

Hope you are following GWR/ BR practice with the driver doing the oil job! Hopefully you chaps will get the link to Taunton reestablished?

Something that find strange is that (amateur) film makers rush things. WHY? Thankfully your people DON'T. Most enjoyable. Well done. -

Hi Great Vid! did notice at 9: 30 the sounds dont match to the clip playing! pretty sure a bullied doesnt sound like that lol: )

How often do they bring out these trains for events like this? I might make a trip to the UK just for these kind of events
reply

A short rake of green coaches, either to run as a rake or be mixed in with other stock would add to the S&D experience.

All the -beauties- carried themselves so well. Enjoyed the long distance panoramic shots. Very well made film.

West Bournemouth? I went to school in Bournemouth, St Peter's School. Great video and very nice loco action.
