A3 Flying Scotsman Superb views high over Ribblehead 18/12 /2021
Flying Scotsman out on the Christmas specials Today, the tour started out in Liverpool via the the S&C to Carlisle and return via the same route later . What a great day for filming, been waiting for the right conditions for a few years, filmed from Simon Fell on the back of Ingleborough looking over Ribblesdale and Batty Moss Viaduct, thanks very much to my new Subscribers .

A rare day indeed when the sound is this crisp from so far away! Thank you for making the effort to capture this occasion so well. The landscapes and the temperarture inversion by themselves would have been worth the climb, but to have 60103 so well caught is a treat.

@@stephenbrass1808 Well it's not far from perfect! There are a few slight shakes at times which could probably be ironed out with software. I use iMovie which has a shake-damping function. If you don't have this I'd be happy to run it through for you to see what the results are like. It's a wonderful sequence which deserves the best treatment for posterity, I think.

This was an excellent contrast in an elevated position to the videos of Nigel and Stephen G on the same day. Great atmospherics and sound .I liked the drifting exhaust and its shadow after crossing Ribblehead. Thanks for making the climb !

Absolutely stunning and jaw dropping. Well done! It couldn't be more different to my day with Duchess of Sutherland in the fog on the A1/A1(M). I came home over Stainmore and broke out of the fog on the A66 just before Bowes into the blue sky and sun - it is was like entering another world.

The video looks good but Scott sounds like a chaff cutter and he is throwing off far too much smoke and steam. It seems that he needs a good clean out and a few things need tightening that have definitely come loose!!!!
