Rails & Ales Mixed Traction Gala 2024 at The North Norfolk Railway

Once again I'm in my happy place at the North Norfolk Railway to see heritage steam and diesel locomotives along with heritage coaching stock at the Rails & Ales Mixed Traction Gala! Admittedly I'm more interested in the rails than the ales!

[@Ztbmrc1]

What a great video! I love those big diesel engines. Glad to see the weather improved in the afternoon, it even got sunny! Thanks for sharing!

[@duncanrogers5762]

hi sarah very good duncan

[@_adamsmith]

Really enjoyed this video. I'm a volunteer at the NNR and it's bit of a tiring experience on gala days but watching your video was a good reminder of why we do it and I'm really pleased that others enjoy the railway as much as I do.

[@MarkBinning]

Great video Sarah, you are a real expert on trains. 😊😊. and buses😊

[@Thornaby37]

Excellent video Sarah 👍 I had a great day there on the Friday

[@MichaelSebastianTodd]

[@Jonathan_55018]

Hi I've just found your site I'm very happy I did I'm 58 years old and just to say thank you for videos of the hobby I love

[@ReubenAshwell]

Brilliant video Sarah, a nice variety of locos at this gala. :)

[@JakeBSteam]

Great video as always Sarah. 🙂

[@Om-nom-nomigon]

Really great video: I am going to have to see if there are any similar events in my area. Looking forward to you getting to 2k soon

[@CuckooAboutTRAINS]

I was just opposite the yard, when the the incident with No.22 occurred.

[@QALibrary]

always love the class 50 and I am sure this is the one that they have used to make models from

[@stevewareing8525]

Nice video Sarah, you just can't beat a bit of heritage "Clag & Kettle" 😉👍. PS: Whoever shouted "Hole in one" as you passed the golf course would have done better shouting *FOUR*. That might have made some of the golfers duck 🤣.

[@KellinoRail]

The problem with No.22 was that the hand brake was left on when they started moving it into the station from the yard. There is a video somewhere on here of it being dragged along with it's wheels completed static. Thankfully it looks like there was no major damage or wheel flats.

[@sarahwiththetrains]

Thanks for the info! I thought it couldn't be much of anything as it was hauling services again not long after.

[@amypetrelli3011]

Did it on the Friday... was soooooo good

[@garyhardwick8489]

Nice video. Can't beat a bit of heritage thrash! If you're ever up the north west keep an eye out for me at the East Lancashire Railway. I'm a signalman at Townsend Fold & Rawtenstall West signalboxes.

[@simonjerryncf1987]

Thomas, Annie & Clarabel on the model railway the highlight for me!

[@travellingguy.138]

Great video & to meet you at Holt Sarah. Thanks for adding Thomas to your video. Tim Steve & Steve👍👍🚂

[@TransportVloggerIan]

23:56 awwwwwwwwwwwww look at the little cute one

[@teecefamilykent]

Gronk...lol...yayyyy Brian rules!

[@kh-ro5su]

can't think of a better pairing than trains and beer

[@sarahwiththetrains]

I'd argue trains and cake would be a better pairing but then I'm not a beer drinker!

[@kh-ro5su]

@@sarahwiththetrains i can't argue with that! especially if it's carrot cake...yummy

[@teecefamilykent]

Beer is good for you.

[@HonarySpock]

A very refreshing video. Well done

[@sarahwiththetrains]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@Mousehole-Rail]

Really great video as I enjoyed seeing all the locos in this video as I seen two of them for real which are the 37 Flopsie as well as 50008

[@norfolksdisusedrailways4353]

Another brilliant film

[@sarahwiththetrains]

Thank you so much 😊

[@deltic1964]

Great Video Sarah Class 25 Beast

[@mancroft]

Excellent, Sarah. Thank you.

[@Sim0nTrains]

Who ever heard of Steps? Could be a Chain Reaction in the comments! That pun might be a complete Tragedy! 😂 Also at 6:40 the 'coaches' painted in the London Transport maroon livery, that's a Class 438 or 4TC (Trailer Control) which were used on the London Waterloo to Weymouth services. They ran on 3rd Rail as far as Bournemouth but then operated in push pull with a Class 33/1 Crompton to Weymouth as the line wasn't electrified at the time but is Used by London Underground for special occasions. North Norfolk Railway is a Railway I do need to visit and looks like there a good Varity of diesels and steam locos on the day, great video.

[@sarahwiththetrains]

Oh god the awful puns 😂 Thanks for the info about the Class 438! I'm always learning new stuff! I really do recommend the North Norfolk Railway. It's excellent. I still really need to visit the Mid-Norfolk as its been on my list for a while!

[@SBCBears]

Hi, Sarah!

[@TransportVloggerIan]

Oh, also, STEPS fans right here, the puns are Better Best Forgotten 😛

[@sarahwiththetrains]

I know some Steps fans like to be counted in before they make a joke so 5, 6, 7, 8.......😛

[@TransportVloggerIan]

[@ianr]

Superb video! Ditto my comments elsewhere. 👍🙂

[@jaybee1921]

Hi Sarah, just enjoyed watching your video on the NNR...aka The Poppy Line. Very well done. One small suggestion if I may, you need to speak up when filming around loco's as it was difficult to hear what you were saying. 🙂 I found your channel quite by accident as it followed on from a friend of mine's video about the Watercress Line in Hampshire. I have now subscribed to your channel and will be watchin in future. I too have a YT channel, "Modeler Man" aka Barnston Camp Junction...If you feel like it give it a look...many thanks. Take care, Jon B.

[@QALibrary]

What the betting the first train you showed (the green one) worked part or most of its life pulling coaches around Norfolk sector of British Railways

[@fussyboy2000]

Are you coming to Whitwell for LLM's gala?

[@PaulSmith-pl7fo]

Hi Sarah. Unless I misheard, I thought you said that this was your first visit to the NNR, yet you posted several videos featuring the NNR last year. I have an N gauge model of Thunderer in BR blue. I also have a TT:120 model of Sir Edgar Elgar (previously name Hercules) in BR green. Lieutenant is pronounced "Leftenant" in the UK. Is Brian the rabbit or your partner? I hate that nickname, Gronk (yes, I know you didn't invent it, but still... What ales did you try?
