5043 Earl Of Mount Edgcumbe thunders through Ashcurch- 20/09/14

5043 Earl Of Mount Edgcumbe on the Welsh Marches at Ashcurch for Tewkesbury (IZ43). The began at Tyseley and went to Hereford via the North Cotswold Line. It then went back up to Tyseley on the Welsh Marches Line- hence the name of the train. 5043 was running about 10 minutes late so it gave me the chance to film a few cross Virgin 125s go past.

Nice footage!

Thanks. It was a great whistling performance-my best mainline shot yet.

Excellent, its great to know that all the time we have talked about football at school we now know that we both have an interest in railways.

Alex Raybould Yeah it is. Do you view yourself as being more into steam or diesels? Or are you just railways in general?
