1st 2021 visit to Long Buckby, wow Its good for freight.19/05/21

Had a train ride to this countryside village station, I filmed 11 locos in the 145 minutes I was there, which I thought was good.

Very enjoyable video Mike. Certainly busy this route so you done well to go there 👍 love the dodgy counting on the track btw 🤣

[@antman09ful1]

Thanks Ben, I do like a few hours at this station.👍

[@GJ37425]

Nice video, well put together 👍

[@antman09ful1]

Glad you liked it matey,

[@gavinpotts6747]

Can't get over the length of these container trains.

[@antman09ful1]

Gavin they are getting longer, thanks for watching.

[@reggiesmith3866]

Excellent filming and thank you but disappointing to see that all but one of the freight trains were diesel hauled despite the wires stretching for hundreds of miles. Why have we sold a number of our electric locos to other countries when there is work for them here?

[@antman09ful1]

I don't understand myself Reggie, we have a line of electric locos at Crewe which could be used instead of Diesels. Thanks very much for your comment and watching.

Long Buckby always reminds me of Keith Mike! A fantastic session at this great spot! Some quality freights you caught and a wise choice of location, Red green and blue sheds in abundance, sheer heaven! I now love the Freightliner G and W colours and i think it suits the nineties perfectly! Trying to imagine how the 70's would fare? A great session highly enjoyable, cheers Nick

[@paulaisbitt1180]

For me the "Holly Trinity" of this genre are Mike, Keith and Swearingkevo

[@RedShedNick]

@@paulaisbitt1180 here here, spot on there!

[@antman09ful1]

Many thanks Nick for your comment, I'm up for seeing a 70 in the new FL livery, me to if someone say Long Buckby I think of Keith. Take care Nick, Regards Mike.

Excellent video. Thanks for posting. I want to go there! 😄😄

[@antman09ful1]

You should get yourself there one day matey.

[@alanbartlett9523]

The numbers on the track may be markers for the cant as it is quite pronounced through there, but I may be wrong. Good filming anyway.

[@antman09ful1]

Thank you Alan for your thoughts, and for checking my video out. Mike.

[@gavinpotts6747]

Like the new Freightliner livery.

[@antman09ful1]

Me too Gavin, them 90s look better in that livery than the 66. Mike.

[@gavinpotts6747]

@@antman09ful1 I can remember when the 90s used to haul the o/night sleepers from Edinburgh to London. Sometimes also 86s & 87s.

[@antman09ful1]

Brilliant days Gavin.

[@arnoldspottingvideos5269]

[@558vulcanxh]

Thanks, very good for the class 90s and emus 👍👍

[@antman09ful1]

Yes It is a good all round station I think at certain times mate.

[@allan5919]

Some super intermodal video clips there Mike. Excellent video! Cheers - Allan.

[@antman09ful1]

It is a good time to go there Allan IF all runs, on the date I went there should have been a few more but didn't run. Cheers for watching Mike.

[@matt154uk9]

[@deauvilledad07]

Nice to see you managed to film the water train for Keith. Excellent video Mike. Well done 🤓 stay safe 💙

[@antman09ful1]

Oh yes Tony you are getting like me, when I see that water train or a track Machine I think of Keith. Cheers Mike.

[@barrythedieselelectricstea5217]

excellent shots of different freight i wonder what the numbers on the track meant🤔

[@antman09ful1]

Someone did say Barry, think It was something to do with the track machine.

[@bobnweaver]

Plenty activity on this video Mike. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, Jeff.

[@antman09ful1]

Thanks for watching Jeff, yes It was a good mid afternoon trip out on the train. Mike.

[@37418]

Wow Awesome Mike Yeah looks good for Freight there 👍👍

[@antman09ful1]

Yes the best times I think If all runs is early morning or when I went in mid afternoon. Cheers Kev for your kind comment. Mike.

[@scruffwoodscruffwood6505]

An excellent show of freight Mike and well filmed but no rabbit in this video

[@antman09ful1]

No Owain don't think we will get the chance to seeing that bunny again.

[@MarkAHHDvideostreaming]

Nice video Mike

[@antman09ful1]

Pleased you have watched and enjoyed the video Mark.

[@SimonTog]

Some good catches Mike, thumbs up :)

[@antman09ful1]

Glad you enjoyed Simon. Cheers.

[@philclarke3203]

Great video Mike. Small, countryside station? Sounds like Acton Bridge,one of my local favourites. Same line, and many trains pass through both. 😀👍

[@antman09ful1]

I went to one of your local stations last Saturday Phil, Acton Bridge but due to a train hitting someone south of me I got stuck there for a time, but I enjoyed my visit.

[@philclarke3203]

Sad reason to be stuck there Mike, but glad you enjoyed your visit.

[@philclarke3203]

Great video Mike.

[@antman09ful1]

Glad you think so Phil, as you know I really do appreciate your comments on my videos, I hope I can keep the standard interesting enough to keep you watching. Cheers Mike..

[@ejc7129]

66’s sound great working st speed? 😊👍🏽

[@antman09ful1]

Yes they do pal, thanks for having a look at my video.

[@SamsVlogstrainsmore]

Long buckby is great for freight

[@antman09ful1]

It certainly is Sam, going to look at your latest vid now.

[@class8866]

the numbers are good for tamping the track...in conncetion with the curve !

[@antman09ful1]

Oh, thanks for the info mate, and for taking a look.

[@normanbridge8924]

[@antman09ful1]

Ok Norman the level on the Cam must be knickered.
