Great adventure, some excellent footage, well done!

[@AnthonyFurnival]

Thanks Richard! I managed three tours in one day yesterday (the other two were steam and diesel) - lots of travelling but I had a great day!

[@WCSpotting]

Brilliant video Anthony! It’s nice to see this out running around! It’s a nice DMU for sure!

[@AnthonyFurnival]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! Definitely good to see her out and about!

Thank you

[@AnthonysTransport]

Great Video, I enjoyed seeing this train at West Brompton!

[@AnthonyFurnival]

Thanks! Was it you I was talking to on the opposite platform at West Brompton? It’s a great station for capturing tours at in my opinion 🙂

[@AnthonysTransport]

@@AnthonyFurnival It is!

[@AnthonyFurnival]

@@AnthonysTransport nice! Glad you found my channel 🙂 did you do any other spotting whilst in London yesterday?

[@GTRRailwaysTrainspotter]

Nice!

[@AnthonyFurnival]

Thank you

[@thetrainguy2024]

Great video as always! I stuck to the terminals for this one

[@AnthonyFurnival]

Thanks! I considered doing that but I opted for a mix instead - fitted better with my plans around the other tours 🙂

[@thetrainguy2024]

@@AnthonyFurnival oh fair enough

[@dwstrains]

Fantastic video!!! I may be biased towards the subject, but perhaps one of you best collections???

[@AnthonyFurnival]

Thanks! I am pleased with this one - this and the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway compilation in the snow I feel are two of my better videos

[@dwstrains]

@@AnthonyFurnival Yep the K&WVR one was very good too!

[@AnthonyFurnival]

@@dwstrains thanks!

[@TrainGuy_2008]

Awesomeeeee!!!!! Looked and sounded great, I assume the whistle is like a depot whistle or something? Amazing catches, whistles and tones! Absolutely loved them! 👍

[@AnthonyFurnival]

Thanks! Yeah exactly that - a depot whistle 🙂 I had fun chasing this around London!

[@TrainGuy_2008]

@@AnthonyFurnival oh cool! Yeah definitely seems it, I'd love to have done that, really want to see a 201 in person!

[@AnthonyFurnival]

@@TrainGuy_2008 this unit is the only 201 but a few other thumpers like 205s and 207s etc are at heritage lines

[@TrainGuy_2008]

@@AnthonyFurnival oh cool! Hopefully I can see one of them eventually!

[@AnthonyFurnival]

Hopefully 🙂

i see me on the bridge at drayton green

[@AnthonyFurnival]

I thought it was you as you mentioned who you were in a past video - so I was pretty sure that was you.

@@AnthonyFurnival i was beside you filming the 165

[@AnthonyFurnival]

Yep I thought so 🙂

[@busesandtrainsinthecounty684]

Next time or maybe next year one day in the future hopefully they will do a re run so I can book it quickly and straight away

[@AnthonyFurnival]

They might do - is it specifically the London termini you want to do or just ride the thumper?

[@busesandtrainsinthecounty684]

@@AnthonyFurnival both

[@AnthonyFurnival]

@@busesandtrainsinthecounty684 ah ok - well the thumper runs several tours a year 🙂 but to different places

[@busesandtrainsinthecounty684]

@Anthony Furnival I will wait till next year hopefully they will do a re run & go to different places because i missed out doing the Linford Curve

[@AnthonyFurnival]

@@busesandtrainsinthecounty684 yeah - I’m sure they have some great things planned! I can’t wait to see it out again 🙂

[@KirbyTrain]

This was awesome mate. i would love to see this. When will this happen again???

[@AnthonyFurnival]

The thumpers out a few times each year - they probably won’t do another London termini one any time soon - it’s next out in mid May on a tour along the south coast.

[@Trainguy336]

I'm first

[@AnthonyFurnival]

Well done

[@allenemery4665]

The hampshires sounded the same. Work on them

[@AnthonyFurnival]

Yep - great units - I do love the thumpers sound! Must have been great to work on them!

[@OscarTheTrainspotter]

Great video
