It's not a birthday bash for some one is it?

Sunday leaving Kings Lynn 08.49 bound for Norwich arriving 11.47

 

Could anyone suggest any spots around Hellifield to film the return on Monday evening? Preferably to the south side before she arrives at the station. Thanks in advanced.

 

Some more times for Sunday.

Footage of 45699 Galatea on the ECS movement for a private charter the following day filmed at Kettlesbeck and Hellifield curve .

 

That ECS is a wonderful mixture. What is the clerestory vehicle in the middle?

 

Footage of Galatea's move to Kings Lynn filmed at Cragg Lane, Eldroth, Hellifield and Bell Busk.



Thanks.

 

Some fabulous footage of 45699 thanks for braving the terrible weather in the north. Running 27 minutes down after leaving Retford on the ECML but what a sight and noise she made climbing Gamston Bank seen here from the foot crossing half way up .

Thats a nice video, It sounds good, but i have never seen such a rag bag collection of coaches. I hope to catch it tomorrow.

 

Ok, how do they turn this lot at Kings Lynn (assuming its gone in Engine first) and then again at Ely to make it on to the Norwich line.

Edit. Its doing a run around at Ely. Means its coming out tender first from Kings Lynn I guess.

 

I think, run round at Ely, tender first to Kings Lynn, chimney first back to Ely in the morning, tender first to Norwich, chimney first to Lowestoft, tender first to Ipswich, then chimney first all the way back to Kings Lynn. Phew! Make sense?

 

45699 working away from March this evening, in sun (almost).

 

Nice.

 

return trip tomorrow..
