Thunderer Steals the Show: Bodmin & Wenford Railway Diesel Gala - 2024

[@TheCornishtrainspotter]

Great video, the gala was brilliant. It was nice to see 50008 Thunderer return to Cornwall. Your videos are always so much better than mine 😂

Superb sights and sounds, from the 121 bubble-car to the mighty H+H Thunderer, all in the beautiful countryside.

Some excellent Class 50 thrash up the 1 in 37. Excellent sound from 47306 as well.

Great video. I appear quite regularly in a white jumper

Fantastic video and the gala was very enjoyable. I think I saw you a couple of times as I had a very similar set up, tripod camcorder and mic. Both the 50s were looking and sounding amazing, Helston railway’s class 10 sounded nice as well, and of course the 47 & bubble car featured as well. All putting on a great show.👍

Quite possibly, I try to find more ‘unique locations’ on the line but I’m running out of options in where to film around this time of year. The lineside is rather overgrown.

@@steamtothewest-trecanrailyeah their isn’t a huge range of spots to go to. Although when I was at Charlie’s gate for the first train, some volunteers who were there just took some of it down which really improved the shot.
