With Britannia stopping for a short while at the railway I thought you might like to see her in action on The Cumbrian Guardsman on Saturday 2nd March 2013.

Interested to know where the locations were if possible please ?

In the first video you seemed to be able to see it coming for ages

Saw Britannia yesterday on light engine move to Hellifield through Doncaster on the centre roads running some 64 mins early 8)

Thanks,

The opening location is at Cragghill Farm just North of Helwith Bridge where from the foot crossing the footpath leads to the field where you can capture the head on shot. The second location is very near the railway cottages at Selside.

Hope this helps..........Phil.
