Super nice video Matt, Great locations and nice sound :)

[@steamvalleyproductions]

Thanks Simon. Nice to do some local locations I’ve been looking at for a while 👍🏻

[@GreatBritishRailways1]

Matt, Excellent choice of locations and an enjoyable video. Regards, John

[@steamvalleyproductions]

Thanks John. The viaduct one was pleasing, nice to get it in the bag 👍🏻

[@michaelhay7744]

Great video, especially liked 7029 over the viaduct.

[@steamvalleyproductions]

Thanks Michael, it’s one of my favourites as well. Loco was working well and a different view you don’t always see. 👍🏻

[@geoffwbaU]

Lovely sounds from both locos !

[@steamvalleyproductions]

Agree with that Geoff!!

[@britainslocomotives517]

The steam coming from both locos is just phenomenal. Good video mate👍😁

[@steamvalleyproductions]

Cheers Mate!! The runpasts were excellent 👍🏻

Fantastic lighting at Ladywood, and a great assault of the Lickey Bank by 7029. Regards, Dan

[@steamvalleyproductions]

Thanks Dan. 2 minutes after it was full sun and we were doing the traditional walking back to the car in sunshine. But after the lighting we got in the morning. I’ll take it 😂 7029 on the Lickey was something else 👍🏻

[@johntitlow893]

A good choice of locations Matt. The sound from the Castle is excellent up the Lickey but the Duchess at speed passed Ladywood is excellent, the going away glint in particular. Well done.

[@steamvalleyproductions]

6233 is a favourite of mine John. Just a pity the sun hadn’t been full. Cheers mate 👍🏻

I was in the lickey incline section too matt and I was directly behind you

[@steamvalleyproductions]

That’s the busiest I’ve seen the Lickey. Including the parking leading to where we are stood.

Splendid stuff. 👍🏿 May I ask what type of camcorder you use? I'm considering getting one, so am interested to see what other people use.

[@steamvalleyproductions]

Thank you Ron. I use the Sony Z1 camcorder. It’s about 5 years old, but still does the job. Good luck with that camcorder purchase. Look at reviews and shop around and hopefully you’ll purchase the right one. 👍🏻

[@ronfisher2-railwaytravelvideos]

@@steamvalleyproductions Well, you're getting some splendid results with it. I mostly use my Panasonic Lumix FZ1000 bridge camera as its 1 inch sensor and Leica lens takes some beating. But it's still a bit of a compromise as it's basically a stills camera that can also take video, so not as versatile as a proper camcorder that's designed for the job. Anyway, I shall continue to ponder...

[@steamvalleyproductions]

@@ronfisher2-railwaytravelvideos Good Luck Ron 👍🏻

Are the 1948 Trials being repeated? !! Thanks for sharing. 1st time I've seen DoS' wick turned up for a while ... and ... no cylinder drain weeps!! Chance, coincidence, or resolved? Al.

[@steamvalleyproductions]

Thanks Al, think they might have resolved the problem
