Superb video Dave. No messing around from 59104 which accelerated very quickly with its train. Thanks for sharing footage of this gala.

Well that was bloody great because for two reasons Dave, I haven't been to a gala on this railway since the late 90s so it was good to see footage from around the stations as I know there are not many places out in the countryside you can get to. Also it was good to see three class 50s at a station. Maybe I should give it a go next year, cheers Mike.

Thanks Mike,not been there before so was a step into the unknown,did some research on google earth which showed limited places to film.The only real place was the foot crossing and there was a note on the website that the farmer would take action against trespassers! So around the stations it was & not too bad as you can see,would have preferred to go on Friday but the weather wasn’t as good as Sunday.Nice to see 3 50’s, a Stratford 47 & a 59 but did like the triple shunters.Cheers Dave

The triple Gronkage on brake vans was amusing. I like how they all have slightly different tone whistles. But goodness, i think 08288 needs looking at before long. 🤔

[@berksandhantsfreight]

I have to say the shunter triple made me chuckle especially the tones,looked & sounded excellent but agree 288 was a little smokey lol Cheers Dave👍🏻

[@AndreiTupolev]

Only trouble with the 59/20 doubleheader is that with the 20 coupled inside as brake adapter, you can barely hear the 59

[@berksandhantsfreight]

Yes thats the only problem & the 20 did dominate the sound👍🏻

Nice video. Not much of a selection of traction.

[@berksandhantsfreight]

Cheers mate,was a decent day out😎A 37 would have added a little extra sparkle but it was ok.Cheers Dave👍🏻
