Spot on John, nicely captured at all locations and some lovely night shots, a great bonus catching Sir Nigel streaking through Newark, cheers nige 👍

[@GreatBritishRailways1]

Thanks Nige but some might think we are crazy doing a 116 mile round trip for a 37 second clip of SNG but well worth the effort in my view. Regards, John

Great captures John , good to see a Jubilee again and a nice cameo from 07 .

[@GreatBritishRailways1]

Steve, Yes I thought I would introduce a bit of intrigue rather than post another video and I agree it was good to see the Jubilee. Regards, John

[@acw71000]

Good footage John, especially the night shots and the guest loco, both working well

[@GreatBritishRailways1]

Austin, Everything went to plan and I thought a bit of intrigue would be different. Regards, John

[@josephpiskac2781]

Love the night video with the beautifully illuminated carriages.

[@GreatBritishRailways1]

Joseph, Thank you very much and I appreciate your comment. Regards, John

[@AndysSteamAdventures]

Nice captures as always and what a guest 👌

[@GreatBritishRailways1]

Yes SNG never fails to impress and Bahamas was sensational as well. Thanks for watching and for your comment. Regards, John

[@James_Trains]

Great Video John. Both locos Performed incredibly and the night shots were incredible. I was out for Bahamas myself as well. Kind Regards, James

[@GreatBritishRailways1]

Thank you very much James. Regards, John

Very nicely captured John, a busy day for steam today, SNG well some speed there, been nice to catch more than one steam tour, i caught 45407 in full flow but timmings not great to catch any other tour . 🎥👍

[@GreatBritishRailways1]

Steve, Yes four steam tours in one day is rare but little chance of capturing all of them. Between us we got three. Regards, John

[@AndreiTupolev]

A very busy day, there were two Black Fives, a Jub and an A4 in action I think weren't there? Splendid night shot at Newark. Showing why they were called Streaks 😁

[@GreatBritishRailways1]

Yes your loco count was correct and many thanks for watching and for your comment. Regards, John

[@SYKAROST]

very comprehensivley covered there John, as well as the 'guest' you managed the 'pretty pendo' too. I hope you were on the edge of that field at Dorden ... the farmer can get a bit 'irritable' lol. Regards, Brian.

[@GreatBritishRailways1]

Thanks Brian and as for the farmer's field there is a designated footpath clearly shown on Google Earth. You cannot see the path at the moment but I was not far from it. As for the "guest" I thought I would use some intrigue rather than upload another video. Regards, John

[@SYKAROST]

@GreatBritishRailways1 I've never had an issue and have chatted with him but I was filming near the gate one day and a photter was only 15 feet from me and got the full wrath . It was funny because I suggested he moved there to get away from my tripod..... Had to make a smart exit 😂.

[@TheLoftLayout]

Amazing video, keep it up!

[@GreatBritishRailways1]

Thanks, will do! Regards, John

[@atomicdave1987]

This is a super video! Was the guest loco Sir Nigel Gresley? Could someone please tell me the best place to find out about these railtours as I'd love to go on one if possible. Thanks in advance.

[@GreatBritishRailways1]

Yes it was. There are a few websites that show the railtour dates and information. Search for “rail advent” or “Railway Herald”. Thanks for watching the video and for your comment. Regards, John

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

Ah yeah sir Nigel gresley is a guest loco making an appearance what named railtour is it hauling at this clip at Grantham
