Mid Hants Railway
"Watercress Line"
18th April 2010
In April of 2010 I made a quick call onto the Mid Hants Railway,to really test some sound equipment with the help of my Brother. I visited Medstead & Four Marks, Ropley and Ropley Bank and captured on video "West Country" Class, number 34007 "Wadebridge" and BR Standard 9F 2-10-0 No. 92212, running between Alresford and Alton and back. Also a 2 car Heritage Class 117 DMU was in passenger service, which is seen at the end of this short video. This unit was now in her last year of operation on the railway. The weather was a wonderful Spring day with plenty of warm sunshine.
I hope the video takes you back to this period with fond memories. Feel free to comment, good or bad, all comments are read and greatly appreciated, but it is not always possible to answer each individually.. Many thanks to all subscribers and for the likes, also to all those viewers whom over the years, have kindly shown an interest and appreciation in my material.
