The Marches Monarch & Cathedrals Express hauled by 6024 King Edward I & 60163 Tornado(26/11/11) 27th November 2011

Two railtours to Shrewsbury on the same day can't be bad. Whilst the weather was dry the wind was ferocious so apologies for the poor sound quality. I had intended the first shot to be from the top of Ragleth Hill near Church Stretton but having spent 40 minutes climbing to the top and then finding the view of the line had too many trees in the way I had to quickly descend and find an alternative shot so ended with a compromise. The second shot of Tornado was a much better location but very exposed. The returns show KE1 at Bayston Hill and had to settle for a station location as it was dark for the final shot of Tornado at Church Stretton.
