West Somerset Railway Spring Steam Gala 2016 - Remembering the S&D

[@johnpenny5638]

Some fabulous footage here and I congratulate you on the angles chosen and the smoothness of the viewings. Personally I would dedicate it to all the volunteers and professionals who have made these fantastic scenes possible. The 7F's double heading makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck! Who would've believed this would have been possible 50 years on? Remember things like a goods train COST them money to run, just for our enjoyment. I salute you all!

I am currently making a non-commercial film about cycling the North Dorset Trailway - that is the Somerset and Dorset trackbed as it now survives between Spetisbury and Sturminster Newton. It will be properly edited and produced and I would very much like to be able to include authentic Somerset and Dorset sounds, such as some of those in this film. Everything would be properly credited. Is this a possibility please?

[@WestCountrySteamVideos]

[@JGProductionsRailways]

+Mr Farmer 875 92214 was sold to the North Yorkshire Moors and painted to BR Lined Black, a couple of years later it was sold to the Great Central Railway and repainted into BR Green and renamed to Central Star, it's just visiting the WSR in this video.
