I was very fortunate to be bought by my friends a session in the Virtual Aerospace Vulcan Simulator in Stockport. It was an excellent and enjoyable session. In this video you see me 'flying' the Vulcan through the lake district under the excellent tutelage of Keith, my instructor for the session. At the end, you see my friends Kevin and Byron having a go. I shall just mention that whilst I land...

I have just seen the Green Signals Exclusive so I thought I pop over here and take a look
Thanks for sharing this video so that we can see how the work is done. Tremendous. It was great that Volker Rail came up trumps.
Great to see guys who know what they are about getting the job done efficiently and quietly. As an engineer it is great to watch. Thank you.
Dropping stone is always interesting like using the shark to spread stone dropped from the dogfish centre door.
I was expecting to see a brake van with ballast ploughs fitted!
Nice filming well done 👍
Looks like a bit more ballast on the right of the tamper would help, seems a bit scant
That was the outside of the curve. For a 70mph curve it would have been raised higher than it was previously.
Very well done to all concerned, look a very nice job indeed . 👍
May just be the camera angles but the new track seems better aligned than maybe it did before - a smooth curve. Well done everyone.
Beaver tamper from Volker Rail does a super job.
Great to see this specialised machinery doing a good job.
Hi Neil, I just found this post, and was wondering why was the track realigned? Ah I just heard your comment
You should all be proud of what you have accomplished. Well done👍
This looks more 'main line' than a lot of the railway network.
Hazelwood next then, eh?!
Very good to see this. A timely reminder of difficult and very dirty work needing doing and tackled. Best wishes to the house residents who have been obviously living within a nightmare after the landslips. All being well I shall join you AT DUFFIELD ! -in a short period of time. Aptly for the date, surrender was not an option...............WELL DONE the EVR team.
Thank you Neil for posting this excellent and most informative video. I look forward to taking the train once more from Duffield, courtesy of all the detailed planning and hard work that has gone into re-aligning the track in such a short space of time. Cheers, William Skinner.
I have just stumbled across this lovely time capsule and I'm only the second to comment and the 5th to like, amazing!
What steam train is that
Epic bro
What is the loco is it Cathrine or duke
The steam one
Chanel Is epic bro
Love ecclesbourne
is that a e2 tank engine
No, it's a 94xx ex-GWR saddle tank.
All the e2 were scrapped back in the 1960s
And fun fact : only 10 e2 were built
Nice to see Eric in action 😊
A good video Neil :)
Its lovely to see the EVR running again, albeit a test run, but nevertheless great to see. :)
Great filming. 2 good tank engines. Both versatile locos and I look forward to a visit later in the year.
Nice to see Cathryn come to fruition, well done to all involved👍 Do you know whether she will be ready in time for the steam gala in September?
"Cate" -just a picnic for the teddy bear ?
What's the bell signal for"Signalbox entering section" then?
Good Video!
Nice clear & plainly presented. Very pleasant to listen to and suits the railway scene perfectly. Were you ever a health and safety officer? Brilliant :)
Thank you! Your feedback is sincerely appreciated and - no - I've never been an H&S officer but safety really takes up a lot of our time at a heritage railway!
Absolutely superb Mr F-L.
Oh lordy - it's a blast from the past though!!!
when I was a small kid, I can remember going up into that Signal Box with, if I remember rightly, a lady called May, I loved watching her pull the levers and turn the big wheel to open the gates, then watch the stone trucks clatter by... I think she lived in the house on the opposite side of the road... 🚂
A pleasant little break from the tedium, Neil ! Tempus has definitely fugitted ! Such a shame the connection was whipped out with such determination... One day ? S.
Excelsior.. (UPARDS!)
I've set a reminder and look forward to it...
Mark Fowler - owner of 7529?
A 'walk and ride' , what a great idea. look forward to doing that.
What happened to Toffo?
The owner sold her. I'm afraid I don't know where she is these days.
Did the owners ego get in the way in the confined space of the engine room?
Why should it?
cool
Great to see this footage. Congratulations on getting to Duffield and the mail line junction. Looking forward to travelling the whole line next spring.
Sounds like a silent footage to me
Could I borrow you to clear my garden?
