Awesome stuff mate, hopefully will be down there some point in the next few months. James on the footplate too!

[@edenbridgejunction7526]

Thanks buddy. Yeah James got on the calli as it was pilot moves yesterday as she's not quite ready to join the service trains. Was a good bash tbh really enjoyed the day and so did James.

[@troywee4774]

good day out i assume? some nice content mate! cheers.

[@edenbridgejunction7526]

Yes mate it was a good day. James was well behaved for a change and he managed to jump on the foot plate a few times too. Something he's never done before so that was good. As you see we even done some hiking to film from the track side... all in all a great day filming/riding trains and meeting friends 👍

@@edenbridgejunction7526 glad it was all good mate. James did look like he was enjoying himself! :) cheers.

Hi Baz. Some nice footage of the event. It would have been better though if you had filmed it in landscape form though. But thank you for sharing it with us. All the best. Mark.

[@edenbridgejunction7526]

Thanks Mark Unfortunately I was only filming like this as I was going to post the clips up as shorts. As it seems like my shorts get views more than full length videos I post. But next time I will make sure I film in landscape mode 👍

[@StanoverModelRailway2020]

No problem Baz. Yeah I know what you mean about shorts having lots more views than normal videos in general. I think it's like that for most channels from what I can see. Maybe you could film in a mix of portrait and landscape mode next time? That way, you could have some footage for some shorts and some for a longer video. Mark.

@@StanoverModelRailway2020 good idea mate. 👍

Sorry gave a dislike filming format not to my liking. Shame I was born and bred in Kent and was looking forward to following you but watching a screen not much bigger on my laptop than my mobile was not for me. You get more views for shorts as they are shown randomly on phones, but not to the audience your aiming at, therefore less subs. However its your channel to do as you like, just giving my reason for the dislike and non sub.

[@edenbridgejunction7526]

All my filming is done from a phone and I think KZbin lowers the quality of the footage. Sorry if it wasn't to your standards.. and tbh I was only filming in this angle as I was going to post bits of it up as shorts . Thanks for giving it a watch anyway my friend. 👍

@@edenbridgejunction7526 Thank you for the prompt reply, was not criticising you, I just thought I'd be honest and give you feedback, I've bookmarked your channel and will keep looking in now and again.

@@grays257 it's OK I didn't read it as a bad comment. All feedback is good. Will do my best to improve the filming . 👍
