With light engine tests completed and all current minor issues sorted, Sir Nigel Gresley is seen on its first loaded test run on the Severn Valley Railway from Bridgnorth to Kidderminster and return. The ex Caledonian sleeper coaches are being used to test the Air Braking system on the A4 and obviously to see how the A4 performs under load. Scenes are taken at Bewdley, Hampton Loade and Eardington Bank. I hope you enjoy the video.

Birds songs are délicious like a fresh drink, and the images of train impressive in this beautiful lovable countryside. Thank you very much for the quality of sounds and colours.

6 minutes of pure joy and what a delight to see SNG with a rack of coaches. Beautiful and the sound of that whistle again. I lost years of my life just hearing that. Thank you for the video seems very inadequate.

Great to hear the chime & the Gresley beat again - still prefer Garter blue though. Thanks for the pics. Great to see them in France.

Lovely video of Sir Nigel Gresley. She’s an absolutely beautiful steam engine.

Thanks for sharing. Great to see her running again. All credit to all who have worked on the rebuild. First class job to whoever set the valve timing.

"Hope you enjoy the video", well I certainly did! Doesn't the whistle sound so evocative.

Brilliant video Liam and Phil. SNG looks fantastic in black livery. It’s great to see her pulling carriages again. What a superb sight. Enjoyable watching. Kind regards C&A

Even with the incongruous coach set SNG looks and sounds so elegant. Thanks, Liam and Phil for these superb captures. Kind regards, Bob.

I lived at Normanton, handy for Doncaster and York. Weekends were full of these beauties. It wasn't until we moved to Winchester that I could buy a platform ticket to sit for the aftenoon and take in the drivers pushing the throttle fully open before Eastleigh. I

Brilliant! Live close to a steam heritage line. Just the sound does it for me!

@ianwright5625 2 года назад

Lovely video - an absolute pleasure to watch - and really love the British countryside. As a primary school student in the Mallee in Australia, used to hear the steam whistle way before the big steam engine went past school. We inevitably (despite contrary instructions from teacher) counted the wagons. Best I recall was about 60 small open wheat wagons. No idea what type of engines were used.

That looks magnificent. Those Mk 3 Sleepers are proving quite useful. * Idea! They could use them on the all-night trains during the Steam Gala!

@callumthornelow2936 2 года назад

The Sleepers are owned by Locomotive services ltd, so those are the guys to make your suggestion.

What a lovely video, absolutely great to see Sir Nigel running again. Must feel nice to stretch those wheels after 7 years : ) I saw her in 2019 at the NRM, still in a thousand bits. Very glad to have an A4 back on the main line!! Such magnificent engines they are. Really hope to meet her in real life sometime soon.

Sounds really good,not struggling at all with that load,been behind it at the nymr some years back. Great stuff!

@jakedarling7549 2 года назад

Does anyone else find it somewhat poetic that the current sole running A4 is No.7, the one named after her designer?

@haroldwilkes6608 2 года назад

Very nice. This engine has one of the few British whistles I really like, Being US, I'm used to lower pitches. When I win the lottery (ha) I'm going on a rail tour for about a year, will definitely not miss this one.

@alan_mythicalgnome 2 года назад

I love this black livery, even if the LNER lettering is said not be correct. It is correct because it is 'Sir Nigel Gresley's ' own preserved livery. If Hornby or Bachmann produce a model, I want one!

@blindpugh12 2 года назад

Were the Support Coach and and Mk III's used the test the air-brake system for mainline running? Great video!

@JintySteam1 2 года назад

Well the Caledonian Sleeper has MK5 coaches now and there are very few HST's about. So I think the SVR might actually own those MK3's Air Brake testing could be a reason but MK3's also weight a little more.

@brickleyyard4966 2 года назад

Now that's a idea gwr if you're listening a ten car sleeper train hauled by a a4 with a 57 on the end would be so cool u could charge almost anything and people would pay it

@BalticFilms144 2 года назад

Those Mk3 coaches with the A4 look like they could be modern versions of the Silver Jubilee. That would be an interesting concept.

@irisdainter6507 2 года назад

Beautiful locomotive 🚂.

Beautiful locomotive, I will go to the UK at some point and see an A4 running

@gazza2933 2 года назад

Great video of a classic engine and a great engineer! (LNER forever). I can understand why train crews of regular services don't acknowledge enthusiasts, but I do think drivers and firemen should get into the spirit of things on these special occasions. 1:55 A simple wave gentlemen/ladies. It's not difficult and costs nothing. 👍

@MarshSteamVideosTM 2 года назад

I'd agree with you if this was public service. In reality the railway is closed and the locomotive is being put through its paces and I'd imagine the fireman and driver will have an eye on other things.

Is it just or has it been a long time since an A4 was on SVR. Recalling 4464’s spring gala appearance 2012

@Discontinued226 2 года назад

For a minute I thought they painted Gresley in BR green or a similar green to Union of south africa or Dwight D Eisenhower Guess it’s the reflection of the sun

Look fantastic in LNER black.Keep it that way for a season

@billhughes5489 2 года назад

Liked it better in blue.

@Backwardlooking 2 года назад

Not keen on the wartime livery. It was applied for nighttime blackout running. My father was bombed travelling from Portsmouth Naval Depot to Scapa Flow. The L.N.E.R. blue pre-war is much more attractive, as are the post war blue and Brunswick Green!. We’re they perhaps recalling the Wren 00 gauge locomotives in their similarly drab wartime Black?.

@adrianrouse5148 2 года назад

As a kid these are my childhood memories. Gresley. Evening star. I have asked when these locos are running but never get a reply. More information has to be put out

Gresley is due to star at the SVR spring steam gala from the 21/04 to 24/04.

@1987VCRProductions 2 года назад

I know they plan on painting it in BR blue for its return to the main line but it would be nice if they kept it in wartime black for awhile, I think it looks nice. One livery I’d like to see is BR garter blue, a livery it briefly carried in the early BR days after the war.

@MarshSteamVideosTM 2 года назад

Should stay in black til the end of May, hopefully will remain in black for mainline testing.

@johnreid1336 2 года назад

Great Locomotive in action. I remember seeing SNG at Carnforth years ago when she was in Garter Blue. By the way, the present livery is correct apart from the letters should be NE not LNER for the wartime colour scheme!

Back in Black !

@kellyashfordtrains2642 2 года назад

Sir Nigel Gresley has the same heavy test train as Britannia had. Why wasn't she tested with a full rake of Mk. 1 coaches? In my opinion, Mk. 1 coaches are lighter and easier for the A4 to handle, especially when puffing up Eardington Bank. Nice video in any case. Love the sound of an A4.😂🙃

@brickleyyard4966 2 года назад

It would be to simulat a fully loaded train and ti test air brakes I would expect
