[@CattoRayTube]

Pride train was a nice bonus!

[@philclarke3203]

It was 👍

[@richardswiderski4985]

Super video Phil what a busy time at Crewe plus plenty of different locos.Certainly kept you busy.I saw them both at Hartford in the morning.

[@justinobrien3593]

Good video I like the 80s Livery of 90002 and the blue class 47 it brings back memories of 1986 when I was out spotting in Manchester piccadilly! Nice to see old workhorses still in use!!!🥰

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Justin. Yes, great to see them still working, and bringing back memories.

[@ramblingrob4693]

I love the Intercity livered Class 90, the best Electric Loco

[@SMILEVIDEOTRAINS]

well worth your visit for our pleasure and your own. well captured mate

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Keith. Yes it was ,even knowing my train home had been cancelled, still I got another video out of the wait

[@benGBRf]

Great footage Phil. Great to see these charter trains running and with such different locos as well

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Ben, certainly is and a great variety of locos too

[@alextrainspotterhd6444]

Lots of good action in this video loved the intercity livery class 90 and royal Scot railtour as well royal Scot been down my way a couple of times

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Alex. Hope you saw Royal Scot!

[@stevedj2707]

Excellent video great to see much variety including Pride :-)

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Steve :-)

[@soundseeker63]

What a spendid collection of classic British traction. Puts me in mind of happier times gone by, rather like how Crewe used to be. I keep wanting to see 90001/2 for myself but can never find any info on them...

[@TrainTraction]

I mean that was just sensational Phil! No words can describe how good this was! Fantastic shots and captures there! Lovely sounds, the thumbnail is spectacular!! Rare awesome sights there and the 57 in the middle makes it better! What awesome timing! Was outstanding! Incredible, really was! What more could you want!? A perfect example of why I recommend your excellent channel! Well done! You even saw the Pride Pendo! Amazing sights! Wow! Really enjoyed, thanks for sharing! Take care, have an awesome weekend and all the best! Jamie.

[@philclarke3203]

Many thanks for your compliments Jamie. I try my best, and a bit of luck too at times :-) .You take care and have a great weekend too! ( I've been to the Great Cental Railway today )

[@CrossfellRailwayVideos]

[@andrewholloway231]

Phenomenal footage. Thank you very much. I enjoyed this.

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Andrew, my pleasure and worth it when I know its enjoyed!

[@antman09ful1]

Great coverage of the movements at Crewe on the 11th Phil, showing diesel electric and steam around the station, and I see you had rain that day in Crewe, I was in Wiltshire and had a nice day. Regards Mike.

[@philclarke3203]

Many thanks Mike. There wasn't alot of rain, just a couple of showers, but at the wrong time. Hope you had a good day.

[@robertbert2662]

Great video looks like 90002 was fresh out the paint shop👍

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Robert. Last year ,but still shining like new!

[@railfanpolska]

Excellent 👌 Greetings from Poland and take care 🖐️

[@philclarke3203]

Many thanks. You too and greetings back to you. :-)

[@philipholt9112]

looks good Phil.

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Phil

[@scottishrailwayfan915]

I saw these rail tours on the crew railcam

[@philclarke3203]

Great thing to watch, if you can't be there!

[@terrier_productions]

Wow two Railtours and the Pride Pendo.. very lucky indeed

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks.

[@tattoo1084]

Fantastic footage Phil, great to see all those together, dont get many shots like that.👍👍

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks David. No, and there was no-one else near me, to get the same.

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

Looks like you got not 1 but 2 railtours with royal scot dropping off his train and letting 90002 take its train onwards and the 57 on the northern belle continuing as normal

[@philclarke3203]

Certainly did Scott!! :-)

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

@@philclarke3203 yeah

[@johnkennedy5528]

Outstanding footage and a just reward for your research, skill and patience. Again, sorry to say it but your wonderful cinematography puts to shame the neglected state of Crewe Station, such beautiful, Renaissance influenced bi-chromatic brickworks rampant with weeds, as with Line-side infrastructure. Anyway, what a day! Thanks for sharing, you have the magic touch. John Kennedy

[@philclarke3203]

Many thanks John. Yes the ingredients for a good video, with a little luck added ! Totally agree about the neglect, and not saving any money either, because a smallish job, soon turns into a very big one. It was never like this until progress came along ??

[@thetrainspotters502]

Some lovely captures here Phil !

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Joe

[@swearingkevo]

Nice vid Phil. Where was everyone ?. The place looked empty

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Kev. A few on platform 12, but I had platform 10 to my self. The way it should be ?? :-)

[@HedleyOnTheHill]

You were very lucky to day

[@philclarke3203]

I was 😀

[@ianjones4116]

Cracking vid Phil. Lots going on . Even caught Pride, damn that pendo is orrible. Love the 47 with Ploughs. 👍😎

[@b3eframen179]

Looks great tbh especially compared to what wouldve been a plain corporate white

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Ian. Yes the 47 did look good, classic blue livery too, unlike the multi coloured swap shop :-)

[@johnbeck7019]

Top job

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks John

[@AndreiTupolev]

What an awesome thumbnail that is.

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Andrei. Yes I was pleased to get that one.

[@SimonTog]

Very good Phil :)

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Simon

[@barrythedieselelectricstea5217]

excellent shots of two rail tours👍 it's a shame when they let weeds take over

[@philclarke3203]

Thanks Barry. Yes, never used to be like that!
