really was a superb day indeed. Despite the constant changing weather conditions. Lyn is just stunning! The team involved have done an amazing job with her. Spotted myself a few time in your video too. Great work and thanks for sharing!

Thank you for posting this - a fabulous record breaking day for the L&B

[@Bovine_of_the_Rails]

Very welcome, thank you for another lovely weekend, wishing you all the best with the future of the railways extension too. :D

[@adambate93]

It was an amazing day. So glad o made it, and avoided getting in your shots 😀

[@Bovine_of_the_Rails]

It's one of the nicest railways I've done so far. :)

[@raymondwillem6370]

Lovely peaceful kind of romantic video. Well done!

Somewhere hidden deep inside is a very modest contribution.The Yorkshire phrase runs, so I understand * many a mickle makes a mickle*.Long live steam!

[@harryconnett4353]

I hope one day we can see the line back to its full glory

An excellent video capturing this amazing new loco's beauty and effortless power. Being 4000 miles away in the middle of America it's wonderful to be able to "be there". Thank you to all who contributed in whatever way to make this part of THE dream come true. Excellent video. Nice close-ups of LYN. What is the background music? It complements the video perfectly (for me anyway).

[@Bovine_of_the_Rails]

Music in the video is called Crescent, one of the built in iPhone music bits by Rob Simonsen. :)

Bovine_of_the_Rails Thanks for the enlightenment. It's the same genre as "Explosions in the Sky"'s music. Love it!

[@amosmaclin4665]

What a beautiful train

[@steeveedee8478]

Narrow guage steam with period coaches. Railway perfection.
