60th London to Brighton Commercial Vehicle Run 2022 in 4K

The Historic Commercial Vehicle Society, 60th London to Brighton Run, Sunday 8th May 2022, was videoed in 4K, it contains various scenes of the commercials travelling along the route B2036 Balcombe Road Horley, at the roundabout approach B2037. Last scene @ 20:05 before travelling to Brighton, I was at Balcombe Road from 8:15am until 11:00am, then made my way to Brighton to make sure I was there for the arrival of the rare sight of The Horsham Traction Company, and three engines and trailer, loaded with one of the worlds largest transformers, also I managed to get various commercials still arriving at Madeira Drive Brighton, also all the commercials at their parked positions, if I have missed videoing any specific commercials my apology, It's not always easy to get to every commercial vehicle with the large volume of people that attend this event, hopefully most youtube users and owners of the vehicles can now watch this in 4k, to make it worthwhile for me videoing and editing & finally uploading in 4K to KZbin, it takes forever and then takes yet more time for KZbin to process HD & 4K video once its finally uploaded.
At the Moment KZbin are still Processing HD & 4K, but because of the exceptional long wait, I have decided to release it now to the public, and hopefully KZbin can get this problem sorted.

Excellent video. Thank you for taking your time to film this and post it.

[@SparkoRC]

Glad you like the video, it's always good to know when I get feedback, it makes my videoing more worthwhile, so thank you.

[@tedthesailor172]

I watched them off from Crystal Palace park that year. A great spectacle. It was a bit unnerving to realise that I could remember seeing most of these models on the road when they were genuinely employed for work...

[@soozikins]

A wonderful trip down memory lane. Greatest admiration for the guys and gals that dedicate their time in preserving these old beauties so that everyone can appreciate them.

[@SparkoRC]

Thank you for watching the video

[@golden.lights.twinkle2329]

I remember many of these vehicles from my childhood in England. In fact, I used to own Dinky Toys of some of them. Excellently filmed and great quality. Thanks.

[@SparkoRC]

My thoughts also, happy days.

Thank you from Manhattan ©2024

[@davidwelch6796]

I enjoyed this video a lot, especially the first section with these splendid vehicles on the road. Thank you for posting this program and thanks also to all the owners and drivers on the magnificent cavalcade.

[@SparkoRC]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@MartinBettler]

Stunning - some of these came with jet engines!

[@anthonygallagher1397]

Brilliant wee film, and the vehicles, everyone of them is immaculate, including the signwriting, some real beauties on display.

[@personwhotalkstomuch4898]

Thankyou so much for having the patience to upload this in 4K. The colours in the sun are amazing. The vehicle at approx 26 mins 10 secs and 37 mins 35 secs in was the 1 that had an issue en route & I reconised it. My late father used to work for that agricultural company in Lincolnshire & I remember as a child going with him in this vehicle once on this particular road run. If I remember correctly it was best in class or something similar. Thanks for bringing back such happy memories.

[@SparkoRC]

Thank you for watching my video, I'm pleased it brought back some happy memories, I'm always pleased when KZbinrs leave comments good or bad, this makes it all the more worthwhile producing these videos, and uploading then in 4K which unfortunately does take a considerable time, then I have to wait again for KZbin to process it in 4K, which can take up to 24hrs, at times I have considered lowering the quality to 1080p, to save time on uploading & the processing 4K videos, especially as lots of viewers only watch it on their phones in 720p or 1080p anyway, but I still ruled this out as I video in 4K anyway, and other viewers may watch with their PC monitor or TV screen in 4K. Thanks again for taking time to leave a comment, and I will check out the two times on the video, you mentioned.😀.

[@SparkoRC]

I remember now the vehicle you revered to is the little light blue Ford pickup that pulled into the lay-by in front of me at 00:17:32, whatever they did to it must have been minor work as it was soon on its way to Brighton again.

[@franzbranntewein1534]

It does so good to see them on the road. Thanks a million!

[@MrHarleyoldfart]

Very good video, Thanks.

[@SparkoRC]

Thank you for your comments, it's always appreciated when viewers leave comments good or bad.

[@worldcooking]

Good footage of these commercial vehicles running on this pleasant road!

[@SparkoRC]

Thank you very much!

[@HarryMollyNut]

I wish something popped up on screen to tell us what each vehicle is.

[@SparkoRC]

Thank you for watching, regarding your comments this is something I'll be working on, in maybe in future videos, but this particular video if someone with knowledge of the lorries appearing in this video, could compile a list with their run number included, and I will add this with time code below the description, sorry unfortunately it would take far too long to re-edit this video again and upload again in 4K.

[@keithchessun5085]

I'm amazed at the number of tippers that have survived our heavy handed use.

[@SparkoRC]

Yes I was also amazed of the condition of them, they are a credit to the owners, who must have spent large amounts of money restoring them

[@ironvulture2015]

7:29 1926 (or so) Sentinal DG8 steam wagon

[@SparkoRC]

Thank you for your information, if possible in future events, I hope to include such detail, if time allows during editing video.

[@carlnapp4412]

Great stuff!

[@SparkoRC]

Thank you.

[@munawarazad413]

BedFord trucks were very popular in Pathans of Pakisran but it did not get popularity in India ,,, where Chevrolet Dodge Ford and later Mercedes and Layland took over,

[@samuelosei-somuah3072]

Only one Austin j2 van could make it to Brighton

[@alexandermathar7780]

Bei 4:00 hat sich ein alter MAN Rundhauber blicken lassen. Gab's den als Rechtslenker?

[@SparkoRC]

Thanks for watching, It is a left-hand drive

[@captaindreadnought212]

what make/model is the truck at 1:04? I can't make out the name one the grille

[@SparkoRC]

It's a Ford Thames Trader 😀, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thames_Trader

[@miraajan3652]

All beautiful clacics car 🚗

[@SparkoRC]

Yes indeed!

[@srfurley]

I looked on the website recently and it says this year’s event is cancelled. Does anybody know why?

[@SparkoRC]

Thank you for that heads up, I was planning to video this event again this year, after checking on their website, www.hcvs.co.uk/ it's partly due to the Coronation, and moving the date of the run back, it also clashes with another event at Brighton where they are dismantling on that Sunday, also there is another problem that they are working to resolve London LEZ (soon to become ULEZ). All this information can be found on HVSC website, They also say the next London to Brighton Run will be held on Sunday 12th May 2024.

[@fcukmegently]

Just to think; most of those vehicles were the status quo and just a common sight on the roads when I was a lad.

[@davidbarrett1487]

Shame our 🇬🇧politicians let our great lorry industry disappear. Great to see the survivors still going strong and looking so good.
