Several years ago my nephew, along with a couple of other train enthusiasts, bought and restored a Class 37 diesel loco. After they bought her they did some research around the loco’s number and found that she was actually called the Lady Diana Spencer! Andrew wrote to Earl Spencer to ask if they could put a nameplate back on the loco when she was restored. Earl Spencer gave his permission and she was renamed at Crewe a couple of years ago. She is chartered out for special trips. Andrew started like Jack as a volunteer at Crewe railway museum and now has a great job working with heritage engines.

Oh my goodness! I’m all choked up! Trains and canals! All of a sudden, I’m four again...as a little girl, I lived between the Basingstoke Canal and the London to Southampton railway line. I was fascinated by both. I would sit and watch the steam trains race by and to this day, the sound of British trains are a lullaby to me! The smell was lovely too. It was a sad day when a high fence was built and the trains became electric. The canal was always very quiet as it needed to be dredged. My brother and I played on the old locks. The canal was dredged in the ‘80s and is now fully operational. Sorry to ramble on. Your vlog was lovely, really lovely! The wildlife, scenery and that wonderful train ride. Thank you!

We could go to outback loo and watch trains at same time. Whole house rattled and shook even at night.

Int Jack brilliant, what a nice young man!! Love to hear all the variety of northern accents, makes me feel a bit homesick, despite the surprising number of 'poms' down here in New Zealand. So glad to see both C&S looking well again. Thanks for all the hard work x

Brilliant - glad you enjoyed yourself. Jack was very cool - and had to put up with Colin's excitement..! I bet Shaun & Otis had a lovely quiet time back at the boat.

That was fantastic. You were just vibrating. Fun to watch. I love how Brits get so obsessed with esoteric things. North Americans seem obsessed mostly with shopping. Take care. ❤️

Great combo video. Loved the engine ride up to Froghall & back. Different view of the country side along a rail line. Again really enjoyed your informative narrative, Colin. Look forward to your next installment. Cheers......
