Those were the days my friends gone forever. What have we got now fuck all.
Three Engines, 2 for the load weight? 1 backup?
Superb 💖💖💖🤩🤩🤩🤣🤣🤣🥳🥳
Why does Tornado need a "pusher" when Tangmere does not?
Oh dear, the poem in the side of 43172 is wrong. Binyon wrote: "They shall grow not old ..."
We have seen, in other KZread footage, Tangmere romp over the top of Hemerden Bank with 9 on , admittedly in drier conditions.
Sorry to be off topic but does any of you know of a trick to log back into an instagram account..? I somehow forgot my login password. I would love any help you can give me
@Conrad Xzavier Instablaster :)
@Elijah Mustafa thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and Im trying it out atm. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Elijah Mustafa it did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thanks so much, you really help me out !
@Conrad Xzavier Happy to help :)
quite a long whistle by 60163 pete
Long time since I have been on here, no action these days as you can gather. As to the whistle I thought first of all it was for me to move but later found out it was because the whistle was stuck, a regular occurrence at that time it seems, made me quite deaf for a minute or two. Hope you enjoyed the video, Pete
And to round it off, that unmistakeable Sulzer sound :)
"Which is this bit?" This is the bit where you keep quiet!

Very enjoyable. It never ceases to amaze me how Swindon's products look so small compared to other companies engines...but they are certainly no less powerful! Why was a diesel on the end this time do you know?
Hi Arthur, Diesel attached for support if needed to my knowledge. Hemmerdon Bank sometimes creates problems so I assume they were taking no chances.
Super power and not a diesel in sight! What an odd combination of 3 cylinder and 4 cylinder exhaust beats? That departure gave me goosebumps.
Hope it comes to bodmin again,looks an awesome train,love ro see it
Blimey never seen an old class 37 Diesel fail here ! What a let down for steam .
By a fricking tripod
In your description you mention a pair of "Halls". I can only see one,
I agree about the drivers but what a pity they didn't paint the station in GWR colours? They should paint the rolling stock in their own colours and label it 'B&WR'. That railmotor sounded like it was really struggling.
Just picked up this vid. Super shots. Being an Exeter. Boy I spent time in the 50s and 60s and Central and St. David’s. Best of both worlds, but the Bullieds are my favourite. Thanks for the share.
Thanks for the comment Tony. I am pleased these shots are still being appreciated. .... Pete
thanks for sharing , great see the diffrent locations
Thanks for the comment, pleased you enjoyed the clips.....pete
The Royal duchy sounds really poorly there sounds like it needs water
She gracefully glides along the track
70000 Britainnia and 70013 Oliver Cromwell hAve the best whistles
Fantastic shots of the bridge and of the train itself. Nowhere else in the world would you see sights such as these! Thank you for posting.
Having seen a lot of departures all over Devon and elsewhere, I can say this was the most spectacular. By far. Maybe it was the damp conditions, - but the steam, smoke, people panicking, dogs barking, alarms going off & even someone ringing the fire brigade!! The week before Tornado departed, but it was nothing compared to this. One person does'nt like it. Perhaps they are from exeter?
Thanks for the comment Richard, pleased you enjoyed the clips. Perhaps the dislike was due to wind noise or being hand held, or just a troll, lots about these days......pete
Judging by the darkness on its return to Plymouth, who/what took the stock & passengers after it arrived back to Plymouth?? Surely all those passengers have places they need to be for the following day
Passengers had the normal service Bristol train delayed and waiting for them to continue their journey Richard, steam was over for them that day.
Six cycles per one turn of the wheel? Not four? How many cylinders it?
Three cylinders on this engine, 19x26 inches. Hope that helps. Thanks for viewing the video.
о_О The third cylinder in the center of locomotive? Awesome locomotive :) If so, it seems that the angle between the positions of the connecting rods 30°, should be the locomotive has a fairly smooth ride.
Great film as usual. I must say I have followed these trains for many years. The best 2 locations are DEPARTURE from Plymouth and Hemerdon. Maybe the filmers need 2... one at each location, then edit it after!
Hi Richard, Pleased you enjoyed the clips, unfortunately had to have the dog with me so was filming hand held and with the light camera hence shakes and wind noise. Like your idea about combining shots, did a bit of that last year with my pal Baz, he now is too ill for traveling and filming so I am now back on my own and so far this year not much to show due to the lack of steam down here. Once again thanks for the comments....pete
I got to Plymouth at about 5 looked at the Duchess on the middle road, then the Pz train came in...the Duchess slowly moved forward and the passengers got off rather bemused at the noise and steam. Someone said, if you wait a moment you will see it...and they did..and very impressed, standing right in front of the main entrance! I then went around the city...had a good look at Beckley (hooray), then returned to quite an epic noisy, smokey send off...again seen by a surprised departing Pz train and waiting Paddington train passengers. Great stuff!
Thst drivers steam pump is the heartbeat of tornado
Great video and seeing locomotives that holds dear memories of north road station ,Plymouth were I was a young boy with steam and black in my hair ,all of 45 years .
+Graham Ball Hi Graham, pleased you enjoyed the clip, the one at start (Saltash) was to be a view of the bridge crossing and then through the station being as the station platform was empty until around 7 mins before arrival when it suddenly filled with the public, had been reported on the local tv news apparently, I then had to move as view was obstructed unfortunately. North Road is a lot different now to what it was in the sixties, no post office bay any longer so can't late post letters the way we used to.Regards....pete
Sir, did you invent telephone?
+steamclips 7:07 did it's chime get stuck open again :P
+GWR 5049 - Not sure to be honest, I do know it was deafening as it went past me.....pete
Not a lot of clearance between Tornado's funnel and the footbridge in the opening shots.
+B.R. Buckeye Man - Yes it does look that way, although close to footbridge I suspect it is due more to the angle of my shot if you understand. I may of course be wrong in that assumption.......pete
+moormanpete Thanks for replying Pete, she made it under anyway, really great shot,cheers chris.
Chimney please, it's not a ship !
Filmed it coming through Dawlish Warren on the 24th Oct. I had just arrived from Yorkshire .Was this filmed the same day Pete ....Cheers.....Trevor.''''
+Trevor Ledgeway Hi Trevor, Yes this was all filmed on the 24th October. The day was basically a test run checking and looking for new locations to film, weather was not the best if I remember correctly ....pete

Miss Memphis Bell named after B17 in America on a visit to sing for the 29th Infantry Division Veterans, one of the first units on Omaha Beach, they made her a Honorary Colonel. What a honor well deserved she entertained us and sang all day. Thanks for editing my clips again, good to see you weren't camera shy, thanks Pete for posting memories again...baz

+moormanpete Thanks for the choice of Four Leaf Clover I keep playing it, hope mine is growing...baz
Thanks for posting an excellent video record of the day when we were made most welcome wherever we were, amazing service of being spoilt preparing refreshments fresh each time. Blue Anchor Museum where we found new information again such a knowable gentleman where nothing was to much trouble to take time explaining. Worth a mention how clean and tidy including toilets the stations were, we were happy to find donation boxes to contribute. Thanks for including and editing my clip....baz
+chuffedtobaz Pleased you enjoyed the record of what was a brilliant day all-round, good weather, good selection of loco's, pleasant staff and good company. Could only include the one clip, others too problematic, sorry.....pete
+moormanpete Let you off this time. Must try harder. lol. Was a long day, was a long way home, was glad you were with me....baz
nice to hear the bells waving Lydham Manor off
+Jim Young Thanks Jim, it has so far been the only time I have caught the bells chiming, not sure what the occasion was.....pete
Pete.. thanks for posting the result of your enormous patience and editing skill, not to mention the videos. Can't add to your description it is very complete. My pleasure of you including my clips makes them look better than I could hope for, we enjoyed the laughs the company the mistakes thanks for the coffee or 2. Her's to the next time....baz.
+chuffedtobaz Thanks for your company and the comments Baz, pleased you enjoyed the compilation......Pete
Thanks for posting Pete. Royal Albert Bridge clip impressive, out of Cornwall into Devon super pan.....baz

Good choice Ivybridge result excellent clip. Thanks for posting pete...baz
I'd that's me had seen enough lol saved by Goliath. Super def. that post grain gets deeper..baz
+chuffedtobaz Had to include Goliath to keep you happy.....pete
I was wondering if someone had managed to film what must be the working of the year, well done! "Too many carriages" would have had nothing to do with it, it's taken the same load over there several times before at a cracking pace.
+AndreiTupolev Sorry about the delay in replying Andrei, as you say she has done Hemerdon many times before so I think it was a combination of problems with possibly the engine and weather, we had heavy showers before the incident. Just a shame I was not further over to my right on the bridge but spots there were taken, also the track side undergrowth now seems to encroach further onto the track making the once just viewable bend now out of sight. Many thanks for your post.....pete
Thanks for posting Pete, 5329 looking and sounding good amazing echo of her whistle, complete record of the days movements as your comment rare visit of the 20's a record for the future nothings here ever.You were more expressive to me re the clown.Thanks for the coffees and the company. Baz.
+chuffedtobaz Thanks Baz, have to tone down my comments ref the clown on the tube....pete
+moormanpete Just paired T V watching with cans on. Why's that, he may have a bruise with bit of luck could be buying you anew cam...baz
That sounds interesting, can I come. Perfect Britannia showing off perfect weather so lucky with this crazy August (Kingswrear to Totnes road closed now flooded) Lydham Manor always sounds an looks good, lucky to see T S ROYALIST to shipshape to be true. Really good shared day again, thanks for the coffee.liked & shared thanks Pete
chuffedtobaz Was what I call a relaxed day, no tripod lugging. As you say weather was once again kind to us, I thought it best to include one of the clips of Royalist arriving just a shame about the TT sound track, when I checked yesterday she had moved onto Falmouth so they are getting around a bit. By the way yes you can come next year if you are a good boy. ...pete
Pete Thanks for posting. Two extremes Captured superbly for our memories center screen. Being seeing Matt off to Derby he's landed safely. just checked to see glad I did. Liked & shared B
chuffedtobaz Thanks Baz, turned out better than expected complete with sounds of the sea side (didn't realise the background was that loud). Glad to hear Matt arrived back safe and sound......pete
Southern engines were never designed to work these routes. Further details from Mr Churchward.
