Mid Hants Railway (England) Autumn Steam Gala 2020 - 4K

Well done to the Mid Hants for being brave enough to put on a “Steam Gala Event” in these difficult times. The event was a loose recreation of the days of the “Pines Express”, when it ran between Manchester and Bournemouth via the legendary Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway from Bath Green Park to Bournemouth West. Participant numbers were severely restricted to only 1500 over the three day event to comply with Covid regulations. I made the mistake of waiting a day or two to buy my ticket, only to discover when I did try, that they’d all been sold, naturally I was disappointed. I was in the area on the Saturday afternoon so I decided to pop along and take a few lineside shots. I was glad I did, I hadn’t realised just how much I’d missed steam, it was strange to see the almost deserted platforms, with none of the hubbub normally associated with Gala events, a small number of people who like myself had failed to buy one of the sought after tickets could be found along the lineside hoping to get a few shots of the action. As it turned out, it was well worth the effort and I hope you enjoy this video including bonus shots of the old and new bridges at Alton.
