'The Buxton Spa Express' - 5th November 2011

Post by steamingyorkshire »

'The Buxton Spa Express' on the 5th November 2011 hauled by 45407 and 44871.

I had hoped that somebody would set fireworks off in the background hence the reason I set out for night shots, however the fireworks went a couple of minutes before the train at Brighouse... Never mind, maybe next year.

The train is seen at Mirfield Station and Brighouse.

Hey Simon
Could you not fix a torch to the video.

I find the two clips quite atmospheric, but that's my take on the matter. I quite like shots like that once in a while.

I just wish the fireworks had gone off in line with the train; I may have a go at putting them in on the computer...

Cor! Fantastic! And you couldn't have arranged the second clip better if you'd had a mate in a car waiting for the train to pass!
If I ain't here, I'm in Bilston, scoffing decent chips at last!!!!
