[@FeckHallBahn]

Absolutely superb work, hugely enjoyed all of it. You must have been soaked! I must get back to ELR - last time I visited was in Autumn 1991…

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Nigel. Haha, no I managed to stay dry...,ish, most of the day. Yes, you must, a long time!

[@paleriksson3345]

Fantastic to watch that struggle (and also other clips from the gala)! And fun thing there´s a loco named after our second largest city...

[@philclarke3203]

[@martinjh999]

Where did the main line go when it was a proper station and line?? Was where 32 was....? Visited back when all the A4's were here... Had an actual trip behind Union of South Africa... :D What you don't realise when you watch video is the incredible smell that the engines give off.... Unmistakeable...

[@philclarke3203]

Headed back into Manchester Victoria. No, can't catch the smell on camera....., yet?

[@Mim69420]

3:50 I would’ve gotten one of the stronger gala engines to bank the train up

[@philclarke3203]

If only they weren't busy?

[@hamshackleton]

Reminds me of an old Paul Simon track "Slip-sliding away" 🙂

[@philclarke3203]

True 😀

[@kevinmills3690]

I remember catching The Brigton to Cardiff service which nearly always pulled by either a West Country light Merchant Navy or a Battle of Briton classMN AS FAR as I know they cha get from a Southern loco to a GWR Loco at Salisbury. Best heritage journey made was Liverpool to Carlisle over Shap brilliant returning via Appleby onThe Settle Carlisle line

[@philclarke3203]

That's a great journey, both ways

[@briantitchener4829]

Great video. Brings back boyhood memories. Love the Bulleid 'spam cans'. Last saw those two in the early/mid 60's on the Southern Railway. Nice to see them on here working again. 👍

[@philclarke3203]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@arthurgrowler5749]

Nice footage there Phil 👍

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Arthur 👍

[@tattoo1084]

Brilliant Phil and 32 got there in the end.👍

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks David. Didn't give up 👍😀

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

Wow a jubilee and the bullied loco together on one train

[@philclarke3203]

Not an everyday sight

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

@@philclarke3203yeah Phil

[@alanhindmarch4483]

Enjoyed the video. But at least one Fireman and one Driver needs retraining. The fireman for allowing the engine to blow off in a station, showering the people on the platform. The driver who continued allowing his engine to wheel slip, which could have ended badly, with rail damage, loco damage or a derailment. He should have got another loco to assist or split the train.

[@69waveydavey]

Do you know how long the Bullieds are there for? I've not been for a few years, might have to go and see them if they're about for a bit.

[@philclarke3203]

City of Wells lives there, 257 Squadron going very soon, if not already.

[@Adam-wu8nh]

@@philclarke3203 257 last running day is today before it goes back

[@richardswiderski4985]

Great videp Phil Poor little Gothenburg its ok for then big engines but she did it in the end.

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Rick. Got to keep up with the big engines

[@TicTacToe3511]

The little train that tried to

[@philclarke3203]

And succeeded 👍

[@harrymcandrew1447]

whats the DMU and any reason its on ELR 4?

[@philclarke3203]

Looks like a class153, not sure why it's there

[@alistairkewish651]

That’s spelled Bulleid, but for the dyslexic amongst us…..e +i…got it?

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks. I always get mixed up with I before E.

[@AlongPreservedLines]

If I'm not mistaken Gothenburg also derailed on this same day, really not a good day for Gothenburg

[@Adam-wu8nh]

where did you find that out?

[@AlongPreservedLines]

@@Adam-wu8nh Saw pictures of it taken by someone else who was there, up at the Transport Museum the back wheels came off at some points

[@philclarke3203]

I believe so. Saw the 08 head up that way, but couldn't see from the station what was happening.

[@bruceknights8330]

Nice bit of regulator control

[@philclarke3203]

Indeed it was 👍

[@kellyashfordtrains2642]

A Black 8 got in on the act. Interesting.

[@philclarke3203]

Yes, interesting

[@kevinmills3690]

Great to see A SPAM CAN BULLIED

[@philclarke3203]

Indeed!

[@CrossfellRailwayVideos]

Phil., I hate to say it but you spelled Bulleid wrong - and it's putting some of your followers wrong, too. I'm sure as a lad he was never bullied, but he's always been Bulleid. (Why? Well I thnk he was Irish . . . )

[@philclarke3203]

Oh dear, not again, it's one of those words I never get right. Haha, yes,hopefully never bullied at school
