@ronik24 Hi, Yes. It is one.

@applecounty Hi, Thanks! :-) Well, Freightliner is also included... ;-) East Lancs was not bad with 2 train traffic, the BR blue railbusses fit right into the landscape, I only caught them in older liveries (or newer in the 90s) yet. And the Hunslet is also a nice change from mainline steamers. The camera was great, only once it gave up on me with low battery, there should also be a scene with the "Welsh Mountaineer" leaving Blaenau. Oh well, that way I only have it on photo. Cheers, Ron

Proof that Britain still uses her railways for freight (38:40) - even if it is German railways that enable us to do so. Hope you enjoyed your trip to the UK Roni, pity the East Lancs didn't have much running. Great production as always - how is the new(ish) camera performing?
-
@zelfoto Hi, Thanks! :-) The ChME3 is at 1:38:05, do you mean this one? Cheers, Roni
-
Super video Roni. On time 1:35:40 is loko ČME3 (CKD Praha).
-
@AndreiTupolev Hi, Thanks, yes, you are right, it should have been 46115 though... Cheers, Ron
-
This is like a whole series of Great Railway Journeys. That Horse must have wondered what his Person was doing (32:00). I hestitate to correct your fine production, but that's not 46115 at Blea Moor, it's a Black 5, 44932 I think.

Really enjoyable especially the jubilee on blea moor typical Uk summer weather!!
