Another video of 60009 Union of South Africa on the Dorset Coast Express.
We begin on a footbridge near Addlestone before moving on to the steps of another footbridge at Old Basing.
Not wishing to mix it with the traffic around Bournemouth we opted for a shot from the hillside overlooking the north portal of Bincombe North Tunnel.
We arrived at Weymouth just as No. 9 was being moved into a fenced compound for servicing, so we headed back to Millbrook on the outskirts of Southampton. The appearance of a slow moving Freightliner meant that a repositioning of the camera was needed and this led to a less than optimal shot as No.9 set out for London, via Romsey and Andover.
Taking the more direct route of the M3 we arrived at Deane in plenty of time to set up on an occupation bridge.
Finally, this video ends where the previous one started, Chertsey.
