    Just for everyones info, Sowerby Bridge at the moment has road works near to the end of Station Road and these are causing considerable delays during the day. Would advise anyone thinking of filming at the station as a second shot to allow plenty of time to get there. Also if your going to jump ahead of the train whilst its at the Brighouse water stop.
    See you there. Also don't forget "The Jubilee Refreshment Rooms" at the station if you fancy refreshments.
    Regards, John.

    The climb out of Victoria was impressive, Albert certainly set off briskly. I arrived too late to get on the right of the line so had to go to the other side. The wall there is a lot higher and my ladder only a short one :( So althought Matt lent me a mini tripod I struggled to keep the camera steady. No sure what has happened to the first few seconds, the picture quality is poor, it is OK on my file but YouTube seems to have done something. Anyway the sound is OK...:D

    Saw it earlier, a few minutes up on schedule leaving Todmorden running close behind a service train. It just cleared Lobb Mill Viaduct going into Horsfall Tunnel when another service train came from the other directing nearly wiping out the picture,

    Great video Ralph.
    Loved the tram on it as well. Very impressive the way the safety valves were still lifting on the way up.
    I'm off down to the satation soon to see her come back.

    Thanks for sharing

    Passed through Sowerby Bridge before it was due off the water stop at Brighouse. Going well with a slight blow on RH cylinder tap. Just got out of sight and the rain started!
    Videos on You Tube later.
    Regards,
    John
