Tanfield Railway North Pole Express 11.12.2022 Christmas Special

★ Hello guys! Welcome to Spike's Steam. Today's video is at Tanfield Railway for The North Pole Express train. I am very pleased to have picked this day (11.12.2022) to film this video as there was plenty of snow on the ground for the Christmas atmosphere.
In this video we see 49 National Coal Board doing the morning part of the timetable and Horden doing the afternoon part of the timetable.
This is my last video before Christmas so I would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and I hope you have a great Christmas Day! I hope you have enjoyed my Christmas Specials this year.
My video shots and my photographs (which you can find on my photography pages linked below) are from:
⚫Marley Hill Engine Shed
⚫North Pole (Andrew's House)
⚫East Tanfield
⚫Causey Arch
★Drone Disclaimer ⚠️
I am aware you need a license to fly a drone! I have my Operator ID and Flyer ID. I am using the DJI Mini 2. I am doing this as a hobby and not getting paid for this. I have done loads of research into this and I can't see that I am doing anything wrong putting my footage on since I am not getting paid for this and doing it as a hobby.

Lovely atmospheric video. May I ask how you access the spots at 26:02 and 27:35? Kind regards. Cameron

[@SpikesSteam]

Cheers Cameron. The one at 26:02 is on a public footpath between Causey Arch and East Tanfield and 27:35 is a open field accessed by the same public footpath I’m on at the 26:02 location

Much waste of coal, water and effort to keep the safety valves blowing. Same thing the day I visited (but my grand-daughter enjoyed the day, especially meeting Santa!).

[@SpikesSteam]

Was still worth it though especially with the snow 😃⛄️ made it more seasonal

[@EllieMaes-Grandad]

@@SpikesSteam I love the little railway. My grand-daughter [6] enjoyed her day immensely - and she had been a year before as well. I hope the whole event was a great success for TR.
