Mid Norfolk Railway Summer Steam Gala 2019

Now that is a really fine looking American loco! And with the low chime whistle too - a joy to watch - and hear! What is its history and with that loco number 5197 where did it hail from, built when, for which American railroad?

That was a very enjoyable video with some great sights and sounds. Thanks for sharing it.

alan warren thank you! My iPhone 8 does a half decent job when there is plenty of light 😊

Nicely covered event although you must have long arms for thos over the top shots lol. I was there doing much the same on Sunday, managed a trip behind 5197 before she was withdrawn mid morning but the Q6 put on a great show on a double workload.... Cheers, Brian.

SYKAROST normal size arms plus a gimbal on a pole 😊

[@SYKAROST]

Haha, guessed it was a 'device' of some description ...... very useful!!

[@timsytanker]

SYKAROST I can recommend the Smooth 4 gimbal if you use an iPhone

[@SYKAROST]

Many thanks but I'm a bit 'old fashioned' and carry a bagful of camcorders and gear..... maybe I should just use my phone as the results look pretty good lol.

Interesting reaction at 18:13. You can't take these railway enthusiasts' anywhere.

Did 5197 suffer from brake problems during her visit?

[@timsytanker]

I believe it did, yes.
