Swanage Railway - 'Winter Warm Up' 06/01/2024

That is a beautiful engine

[@chrishouse3299]

What a fantastic last shot, the sparks in the dusk really made it 😍

[@TheSouthernerYTChannel]

Thanks very much

[@theaccountofmine.8779]

Man the T3 has got some stack talk, love it!

[@JBTEvans]

The cinders looked like snow in that last shot! Loved that opening morning sunshine shot of 563!

[@TheSouthernerYTChannel]

Thanks very much

[@TheHoveHeretic]

Straight away, even before 563 came into sight, it sounded WAY more businesslike than it's first steamings, last year. Bit claggy with the loudest pedal open, perhaps....but no worse than the T9 when I saw it on the Mid Hants, or the K&ESR's gorgeous old 0-6-0st 'Charwelton' attacking Tenterden Bank. A dyed in the wool southerner, I've got a definite soft spot for the Cromptons. 🙂

The falling glowing embers were fantastic. Great film

[@TheSouthernerYTChannel]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@bobingram6912]

Treated yourself to some decent weather at last!!!😂😂😂 563 seems to chuck out a load of clag but with Eddy on the back the sparks were really flying. Cheers Matthew👍👍👍

[@TheSouthernerYTChannel]

Finally got lucky 😅 Still very much a clag machine, but audibly a much more solid locomotive than when it was launched. A real credit to the team behind it.

[@TrainsOfDorset]

I was on the last 2 double headed services with 563 and Eddystone, the sparks looked really cool out of the window. Great shots!

[@brianwillson9567]

Stuffed and mounted at the NRM ( sorry, 'railway museum') or live and running at Swanage...... a no brainer.

[@TheSouthernerYTChannel]

While I appreciate the humour in NRM-bashing, it is worth remembering that the SR would never have been given the T3 had the NRM not been agreeable about the whole project, and patient while the plans were laid for its transfer to Dorset.

[@johnlunnun9769]

Beautiful, the pre grouping locos are lovely!

[@johnbourke723]

563 seems to be actually throwing sparks hauling a slightly dormant Eddystone in the last sequence...may be it's developed a bit a of a blow on the cylinder rod glands as there there seems to be a lot of leakage both front and rear of the cylinders ...good to see it doing some work...

[@dansawyer83]

Brilliant video as always, especially the double header which I didn't stick around for. I did wonder if you were around that day.

[@grahamroffey1566]

Thank you for sharing, brilliant video!

[@TheSouthernerYTChannel]

Cheers

[@djburland]

Wow those dusk scenes of the ash dropping were great

[@terrygee1628]

Lovely locomotive beautiful, but I think it will need a spark arrestor in the summer lol.

[@adriancarter2863]

Wonder if Dapol or Rapido will model the LSWR T3 in 00? Would make a wonderful sight on any layout hauling a Steam Special if produced to the same standard as the Dapol SECR D Class.

[@BrokenIET]

Or Accurascale for that matter! All 3 of them seem to be leading the way with modelling now

[@SimonTog]

Super nice video :)

[@TheSouthernerYTChannel]

Cheers

I guess you can say this is Edward's Satur-Day Out
