Tales of New Wessex - Cathedrals of Steam

[@NorthernSoulExpress]

The scenes where Alfredstone Cathedral realises his livery was LNER apple green, and the scene with the Royal Scot class had me in complete stitches, and the savage station announcement who didn't give a shit was brilliant. was an excellent episode, definitely looking forward to seeing how this pans out.

[@eliotreader8220]

don't forget the Atlantic coast express that went from London Waterloo to the West country

[@Eurofish2010]

I really love the Coronation Scot theme in this episode

[@andrewreynolds4949]

Those station announcements XD And episodes made on Train Simulator look so much better these days than they did only a few years ago.

[@HenryYang-2623]

I really like how the Cathedral runs. They are gorgeous and really perfect for an express Runs. Nice work.

[@robertbalazslorincz8218]

I must say that shot at 9:54 of Alfredston is very neat. It looks like an LNER loco at speed with it's train... until it gets closer and you realise the coaches are Hawksworths and the engine is a Hawksworth Cathedral.

[@hughmunford7297]

What an absolutely BRILLIANT episode. I really like how this episode feels so different and yet so naturally part of the series. Alfredstone Cathedral (I’d be seriously tempted to call him Alf or Alfie just to piss him off XD) seems like a very interesting character: slightly pompous but well meaning and down to earth, with a great sense of humour and a slightly naive streak I find very endearing. His livery actually does suit him rather well, although I also bet he’d look absolutely smashing in BR Blue. Your use of blended sets to show Alfred’s journey from the island to London were jaw dropping gorgeous and worked together so seamlessly: I really did like how little dialogue there was so that the scenery really stood out. I love the ties as well that are being made between this series and Rails To Salvation as well: this universe of stories is just so gripping and entertaining, and the lore is so well done. I love the little inclusion of Seaforth the Royal Scot as well - the banter between them was brilliant, and I like how it subtlety still shows the slight rivalry between these two former companies. I’m guessing he was taking an express somewhere north to the likes of Crewe or Manchester? Also, those station announcements are PURE COMEDIC GOLD XD - please keep including them.

I like this show I love the characters I love the American Railroad I love how there’s some mild jokes in there and I like how you’re not that noticeable

[@thestolenmhrproperty2102]

I think this is my favourite episode out of all of them so far

[@STPaulCathedrel8013]

Such a well done episode. I can not wait for more of this series

[@MonopodMan]

Nice to see you incorporating elements of Rails To Refuge into the series

[@christopherparker3409]

Hi Andy (steaming westward productions)your programme Cathedrals of steam is brilliant a bit that Alfred said had me laughing was from 5:37 to 7:28 now that IS pure brilliance and that's why I love watching your channel as It always makes me feel very happy well done. Keep up the fantastic and brilliant work.

[@mozeskertesz6398]

I didn't know that reverse de Glehn was so popular. 4-cylinder engines are famous for axle breaking.

[@jameswright7284]

Brilliant episode once again mate you should be really proud of what you've done here. Up to your usual high quality it leaves me hungry for more.

[@Fadhiil5112]

Idk why but Mr. Stard saying that Redwick Cathedral commiting "honorable seppuku" made me chuckle

[@Northerner_Transport_Hub]

7:24 I've never EVER laughed harder, nice one Andy

[@physiocrat7143]

Had another look on a full sized screen. The GWR main line is just how I remember it. Another time can you fit in a shot of Goring troughs? I spend many a cold winter's day standing on Cholsey and Moulsford and one day got a lift in the cab of the Wallingford Bunk,1407.

[@Staemtraction]

Another great episode. Keep up the great work.

[@fr8ener96]

very great episode! also, sorry about all the stupid questions from before. I just like these episodes.

The tank at the doorstep is great

YES BEST LIVERY some LNER Livery best way to go there also great new episode there really enjoyed it

[@ashleywilson8033]

Really enjoying the series. Please could you do a map and fleet video possibly? Showing who works where on the island? :)

[@SteamingWestwardsProductions]

Thank you Ashley! Yes of course I can! I’ve already begun on this kind of thing so hopefully I can get that done :)

[@eliotreader8220]

@@SteamingWestwardsProductions when I saw the GWR super express engine in the lighter green livery I thought they just making do with what paint they had in the workshop.

[@JRSJordansRailwaySimulator]

andy this gets better everytime i watch it you hvae don an incredible job with season 1 and work so far on season 2 (ps Alfreds theme is possibly the best very close between the main theme and hercules' theme)

[@scoobthee28]

Did I just see Ramsey in the station from rails to refuge

[@bowlerstuff9589]

The station announcer is savage

[@thatflyingscotsmanfan1297]

He may be in Apple Green, but he scared me when passing by at speed.

[@georgepom328]

This was very good

[@thepoltroon992]

i love this series it keeps me entertainded every day. thanks swp old chap, do you like GWR by any chance?

[@ekrano8746]

What did the station announcement say at 11:09

[@EpicBanastard]

"Please do not talk to the weird man in the black suit who is talking to steam trains, her may be a health hazard to himself and the traveling public"

[@bskorupk]

It took me too long to get back to this series, but now that I am, 10:20 - 11:12 has me in stitches! I'm sorry to say I resemble the last one at times! ;) "Train now arriving at platform 3 Is the Essex-Wyvern Express from Alfredston, If you see any abnormally large Seagulls, please do not let them off the train, they are a health hazard. To all those members of the public who have lost the Second-Half of Season Two of SVRS, Please come to the lost property office. Please do not talk to the weird man in the black suit who is talking to steam trains, he may be a health hazard to himself and the traveling public." Cheers! :)

[@physiocrat7143]

So sad to compare the GW line then and now. The whole route has been cased in a tunnel of steel goalposts and gallows

[@kiankendric]

At 10:23 is that Ramsey???

[@porthbournepictures]

Yes

It's not Thomas music, it's The ToNW Intro xD

How can i get the weird funnel that Pilot has? I wanna know

[@maverick9530]

The pannier is from victory works and to get the spark arrester funnel it's basically trial and error just keep on spawning vw 5700 br black panniers and once you get the spark arrester funnel just copy the code that comes after the shed code

what did North Star mean by saying the 4-6-2 needed to loose a few tons?

The Cathedrals are beefy express locos compared to the rest of the GWR tender engines.

[@eliotreader8220]

they are smoke deflectors not flaps
