South Wales Railtours (2021)

From April to November 2021, we have been filming various railtours across South Wales, although the tours have been mostly filmed on the Welsh Marches mainline, but the variety is a great mix of steam and diesel locos, with the subtitles listening each railtour that was filmed throughout the year.

Our personal favourite railtour captures have been the Class 20 at Port Talbort Parkway, because it was one of those important moments where a rare visit from a 20 comes and goes, and the Class 40s at Pontypool & New Inn, and the reason for that is because it stopped at our local station for a photography stop, a very rare moment to happen in today's world.

We hope you enjoy the video.
