Loved the video, just come back from holiday in Devon. All the hst castle class and special running. Did Torquay to Exmouth all along the coast. Stunning.

[@SMILEVIDEOTRAINS]

fantastic, never should have got rid of so many. I dont approve of Azuma so called space age trains. thank you for view and comment

[@garymcgregor7048]

Yeah they have no sole. There all running them now unfortunately 😕

Wellingbough is were I pass out from cleaner to pass cleaner in 1959 I was a fire man at Market Harborough. Thankyou for your time to do this video.

[@SMILEVIDEOTRAINS]

Thats a bit of a coincidence. I was a chef in the lodging house which you would have passed as you crossed Mill Road bridge. 1958

Thanks for another enjoyable day out Keith. It’s great to see these places I used to go to in steam days when growing up in London. Cheers from New Zealand.

[@SMILEVIDEOTRAINS]

Glad you enjoyed it and my best wishes to you

[@RedShedNick]

You missed three freights earlier, can i have a full cash refund please Keith haha? A great session again from you. Think you saw all the 6 Rog 37's, amazing! And Derby RTC was full of jems too! Only to finish with a load of terrific stills. Another great trip out and hugely enjoyed, cheers Nick.

[@davidcoleman6032]

Well done Keith, I absolutely love the class 37's!👍☺As you say,they sound fantastic!

[@anthonywarrener1881]

Thank you for a most enjoyable ride ! Great to see so many Class 37s and 73s about, and nice to see the GBRf liveried Class 47 also. I do like the EMR livery, and it suits both the Class 360EMUs and Class 170s very nicely. Many thanks for your efforts.

[@SMILEVIDEOTRAINS]

thank you kindly

[@ianforfun1]

That train nose in the distance and almost impossible to see is a class 67 loco, I stopped and watched it again a few times, paused it and went full screen and cross-referenced it with likely candidates and checked on images. Enjoyed the video and it surprises me to see so many vintage locos in use today. I particularly like the class 37 sound and 2nd of my favourites as the obvious all-time number one is the class 55 Deltic sound.

[@MichaelHenderson1948]

Thanks for another enjoyable trip. Pity about the door that didn't open though. Being on Market Harborough station reminded me of being taken to Leicester to visit relatives, in the 1950s, when that station was a dark place. Then all those stops on the way to Northampton, such as Lamport. No corridors on that train, just 3 coaches, pulled by a little tank engine. It always seemed to go fast though.

A very nice journey thanks for taking us with you as for what to do when the railstrikes are on (lets hope it will be sorted as I have a 500 mile return trip to York on the 22nd!!!!!!) you can have a look at our model railways they will still be running and there are a lot of channels to see. Cheers Robert.

[@trainmanbob]

As always Keith, thanks for another memorable trip, especially so because you mentioned my local station, Newark Castle. I was wondering, those incredible finishes on the EMR trains in Purple, are they sprayed or transfers ?Like you, I think it is one of the smartest railway liveries. Best regards, Bob

[@SMILEVIDEOTRAINS]

Glad you enjoyed it. Well Bob, I am let to believe that they are painted. My favourite trains at the moment on my line.

Well that didn't work out too badly Keith, in fact had things run to time you'd have got a Colas 37 at Derby too and almost the 56 coming back with wagons. Still, despite having to use six trains for this round trip the timings were just right for the unit drag and test train on return, and 66799 to finish which I've not seen myself yet. Thank you for sending the Rushton clip for my parents to see.

Keith I had a ride on the Elizabeth Line the Monday after it opened. As I can't cope with stairs and escalators the underground is of no use to me. I caught a train from Hemel to Euston, a 205 bus from Euston to Paddington, an Elizabeth line to Abbey Wood and a Thameslnk train from there to St Pancras from where I walked to Euston for a train home.

[@SMILEVIDEOTRAINS]

wow. and what did you think about the Elizabeth line David which is not going to be fully open for a long time yet.

Hi. Keith how are you feeling today? And your lovely lady June getting on? Here's a thing to think about. What you going to do when the trains go on strike?

Thank you. not a good day today Elvis. breathing/legs and a bit dizzy problems but I still went out to my local station. The lady is fit and well and I saw her last Saturday. The strike will be a nuisance but I have over 400 video's that no one has ever seen so I will use some of them.I started filming many years ago.
