Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway - 14.4.10

After filming 'Tornado' on the Cumbrian Coast I decided to spend a few hours at the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway before setting off for Ais Gill to film the return. The video is filmed around the delightful Newby Bridge Halt with the exception of the last scene which is at the southern tip of Lake Windermere with the train just having departed from lakeside. The locomotive on duty is 1942 bulit Bagnall no. 2682, 'Princess'

A very nicely presented video, Austin. That was some whistle for such a small loco!

[@acw71000]

Thanks very much, it was a lovely day to be filming.

Thank´s for uploding these video, very nice and good quality greetings from Germany to U.K.

[@acw71000]

Merci Philippe, un plaisir de filmer dans une si belle région

[@PennRailVideos]

Cool video; very pretty scenery along this right of way! That is some whistle alright!

[@acw71000]

Thanks Si, a very pleasant way to idle away a few hours.

[@acw71000]

Thanks, its a nice line, must try and get up there again, glad you enjoyed it.

[@acw71000]

Thanks John, yes it was very peaceful, much to my tastes. Nice long run you had on the NYMR, I'm thinking about coming up for a day or two at the gala.

[@acw71000]

Thank you, the line goes right to the tip of Lake Windermere, Englands largest, a very beautiful part of the country

[@acw71000]

Thanks, a lovely area, pleasantly quiet at Christmas I expect

[@mollsmyre]

A beautiful piece of filming.Top Class. 5*

[@acw71000]

Thanks Mike, the lorry I could have done without, good job most of the train had passed. It actually came to a halt alongside me as two cyclists who had stopped to look at the train were blocking the road.

[@acw71000]

Thanks Jamie, the line certainly passes through wonderful scenery, deserves a higher profile. No one seems to like that whistle!

[@acw71000]

Thanks Dave, it is certainly nice up there, especially when the sun shines

[@BitsBobsThisAndThat]

A pleasure as always. Shame you had to fade-out bcecause of the van. Still not to worry. :)

[@acw71000]

Thanks very much, I'm pleased you enjoyed the video

[@SteamingYorkshire]

Lovely shots Austin, well worth the trip ;) Simon

[@acw71000]

Thanks Mike, it was certainly a spring like day apart from the cold wind. Lovely area to while away a few hours.

[@rab4472]

Nice one Austin. It must be spring if the LHR is running again. Mike

[@acw71000]

Thanks Bob, yes a very pleasant few hours as there was quite a long time between 60163's outward and return runs.

[@AndreiTupolev]

I like the person in the boat waving in the last clip. At least, I hope they were just waving. And an interesting sheep as well.

[@acw71000]

Thanks for that info Cameron, she's a lovely little engine. I'm well overdue a visit to this beautiful line

[@Gothenburg32]

+acw71000, The next time I go to the Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway, I would like to go on Princess, because I've never been on her before. I've been to the Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway about 13 times now and every single time I go, I'm always stuck with the blue AB tank engine, Repulse and Victor! (I also went on Cumbria, back in 2008, but she's not at the LHR anymore; she's now at the Battlefield Line!) I would also like to go on one of the Fairburn tank engines, because I've never been on either of them. Mascott

[@acw71000]

Danke Bernhard, Grüße zu Ihnen von sonnigem England im Frühjahr

[@acw71000]

Thanks, yes it must have been repainted as I also saw it a few years ago in blue

[@acw71000]

Thanks, yes there is always something to annoy, when I looked at the shot earlier there was a car parked by the large tree, thought I had cracked it when it moved!

[@acw71000]

They might have been sinking and were trying to attract attention! The sheep, I believe is a Herdwick, the native breed of the Central and Western Lake District ( I've probably set myself up for a massive fall there)

[@acw71000]

Rather loud wasn't it? Nice line, and as you say perhaps not enough seen of it. Thanks for your kind comments.

[@SecondValveSteam]

Sorry, lovely video of Princess, she's back in blue now, Cameron

[@Mikal2475]

Liek this. Went to the railway a few years ago and saw this engine. Looks grey in the film though, has it been repainted from blue?

[@BritishLocoFilms]

nice video also nice to see somebody who is filming Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway not many people film that line. I do not like that engine's whistle

[@acw71000]

I presume its coal fired, which would be stored behind the cab, but am not 100% certain...anyone out there know?

[@acw71000]

Thank you, yes you can imagine it like Thomas, puffing its cheeks out can't you
