Speed To The West: Main Line Steam & Diesel Compilation (2024)

With 2025 now under way, it's time for the traditional compilation video reviewing the footage I managed to capture of the British railway preservation scene in 2024. This first of two videos focuses on action along the national rail network, with a second dedicated to covering heritage railways. Some personal highlights include: the long awaited return to the main line of D1015 'Western Champion', following its successful loaded test run as it piloted an Avonmouth cement train. We also had the sight and sound of a GWR Castle tackling the South Devon Banks for the first time since 2014, as 7029 'Clun Castle' worked a 'Z48' anniversary train to Plymouth. Later on in the year we were treated to double headed Castles over the banks, as Clun was joined by 5043 'Earl of Mount Edgcumbe' to work 'The Mayflower' to Plymouth. Another returnee to the main line in 2024 was 35028 'Clan Line', following some extensive repair work. Its first run back took it to Westbury with the Belmond Pullman set and the performance up Upton Scudamore on the return run is something I'll never forget! Finally, it was lovely to see 70000 'Britannia' making a few more appearances later in the year. Always a favourite loco, but had become a bit of a rarity in my neck of the woods, in recent years. As always, thanks for watching, and thanks to all the people and organisations who put in the hard work to make the things I film even happen in the first place. I hope you enjoy the video.
