With the dry spell continuing in Central & Southern England, steam action is at a premium and with diesel operation/assistance now being implemented across some parts of the mainline we are currently unable to capture anything worth filming. Even some preserved railways are now running diesel only in certain parts of the county or at worst Show Pony Steam with a restricted output of power to reduce fires. The only place that is seeing pure steam operations is in the North West of England and its hardly local for us. With intense work commitments and more dry weather in the forecast I cannot see where our next dose of proper steam is coming from. So apologies for the lack of new steam videos.
With this in mind and to keep the our channel ticking over I've dug deep into the Archives to hunt down some unpublished scenes and low behold I came across these two little gems from the 2021 Autumn Steam Gala on the Severn Valley Railway. No idea why these didn't make the cut but I'm just glad to of stumbled across them. I will have another look in the archive to see if there's anything else worth publishing for your enjoyment.
I hope you enjoy the video.
