Steam Locomotives at Speed - Volume 1 - 2019-2021

A brief collection of 10 locomotives hammering along the rails of the national network, taken at various locations in 2019-2021.

The annual railtour programme that us enthusiasts are treated to, always provides some highlights for steam performance over each year; and for many, there is no substitute for the sights and sounds of a steam locomotive at speed. Captured on a range of railtours, in varied regions, the cameras have caught a small variety of locomotives living up to the image, as they've sped around at the helm of some excursions over the years.

As always, it's a testament to all the staff and volunteers who maintain these locomotives, and organise and operate these tours, that we are still able to enjoy these things in the 21st century.

LMS 'Coronation' Class - 6233 "Duchess of Sutherland"

A finer selection you'd be hard put to find (or will Part 2 proove me wrong🤔!!) A good old reminisce of some good times brought to us by a dedicated crew of owners, staff and volunteers . . . not forgetting your good self Matt for bringing them to our armchairs👍🏻👍🏻👏👏

Lovely stuff. I never tire of that closing clip of Clan Line racing down the bank and through Worplesdon.

In India there were steam engines during our childhood but they are missing such an old long Very very sad.
