The Britannia Bark ! 70013 Oliver Cromwell On The GCR & The Mainline !

[@JonDingle]

That has to be the absolute best opening scene for a steam locomotive bar none (so far) in the history of steam railway travel. Atmospheric, dramatic, powerful and thrilling!

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

That's a bold statement, but one which I like to hear ! Many thanks !

[@Han-wh5ie]

Een lust voor oog en oor ! Bijzonder fraaie locomotief.

[@marklelohe3754]

My favourite Loco, thank you for reminding me what beautiful sound she makes and why I fell in love with the Britannia when I was a boy.

[@landhopper4296]

Biblical opening scene! I’ve watched most of your posts, and the framing, composition, lighting, colour and sound are second to none.

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Very kind of you to say so. I'm glad you enjoy our videos. It's much appreciated.

[@kubadobrasiak8378]

Love locomotove❤❤❤

[@DrBearAviation]

The steam preceding and engulfing the loco is spectacular. The sound is also charismatic.

[@Courtneyobrien19]

The first shot of the engine coming out of the smoke is awesome.

[@greghilton7797]

Fantastic stuff. The opening shot was real treat.

[@railfreightdrivergallagherGBRf]

Just like 70000 Britania, 700013 is an absolute volcano of a loco. Superb video.

[@EMuksteam]

Brilliant compilation Liam and Phil. It will be great to see this unusual loco back on main line. Kind regards C&A

[@oldfart6318]

A stunning collection.

[@oldgittarist]

Wonderful to see 70013 in full cry. I remember when she was just a static exhibit at the Bressingham museum.

[@LiamsLocos]

British standard 7’s are one of my favourites, they have a presence Great as always lads! Cheers, Liam

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Great locos they are, always sound on the money. Cheers Mate.

[@Helvett222]

Good job 👍 Greetings from Poland 😉

[@johnkendall9776]

Thanks for posting one of my favourite locos, hopefully back in service before too long.

[@petercope4360driverpete]

Great stuff, watching again straight away, what more need I say, thank you very much Pete

[@jamesedwards7241]

It used to be a prized catch to find one of these beasts shunted over at Gainsborough Central awaiting a path towards Immingham with the crew cleaning the fire and doing a walk round. Little did I know I would eventually drive the same route many years later on a regular basis.

[@Ed_Gilbert]

Shame that line specifically doesn’t see the same amount of traffic it used to

[@harnettyrailways]

Cracker of a compilation Liam & Phil nice job. Hopefully won't be to long before Oliver returns to service. Richard

Love The Britannia Bark! 70013 Oliver Cromwell On The GCR & The Mainline!

[@welshsteamenthusiast3440]

Britannia and Oliver Cromwell are so powerful!

[@SimonTog]

Very well done video, a great collection :)

[@rogerhill138]

Whatever, thanks for these videos - really great.

[@svsmodelling2857]

Love this engine!

[@Mikemixolydian]

Thank you

[@arthurgrowler5749]

Great video and channel 👍

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Thank you 👍

[@FloridaRailfan]

Excellent video of an excellent subject. Is this engine still operating?

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Awaiting overhaul, no idea of a time frame but it should return. Many thanks.

[@FloridaRailfan]

I’m excitedly awaiting its return, thanks for the info. Keep the good vids coming!

[@kubadobrasiak8378]

Love you

[@rogerhill138]

What an incredible waste of steam at the start. Well balanced on the Oxford run. Beautiful balance at Berkswell and later.

[@wam2610]

[@eddherring4972]

Trespassing puts these events at risk and although fences are clearly visible in some locations, in others they clearly are not. I’d love to give this vid a 👍🏻but I can’t because you could be contributing to these magnificent locomotives only being seen on static display. Respect the law, do not trespass on the railways and help to keep these locomotives on our railways. I’d be happier watching your vid even if part of it was blocked by some bushes or fences etc or if they were made from a nearby field or bridge etc. I don’t enjoy knowing that you are trespassing because you could be contributing to none of us seeing this again, I hope you understand what I’m saying.

[@MarshSteamVideosTM]

Half of the scenes featured in this video are taken on the Great Central Railway (a private preserved railway) this is backed up with the added addition of a lineside permit/pass for members of the railway, to which I owned. There is zero tresspass featured in this video, any close up shot taken on the mainline was taken from a public vantage point or public right of way across the railway AKA a foot crossing ! I hope you understand what I'm saying.

[@eddherring4972]

@@MarshSteamVideosTM absolutely fantastic, thank you for not being one of those idiots like and share on the way. Thank you. I can now honestly say what I’d refrained from before, those are great captures and the vid really is superb.
