Some very nice clips there.

However, could I offer one suggestion on 'film direction' aspects here? - not changing the zoom in mid-scene looks more professional, and provides a very odd experience for the viewer.

This is just my opinion, others might not mind the 'tromboning' effect.

Still, nice to see someone putting these clips online.

I've just managed to upload one myself to : http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid ... 2920074072

Shame that google drops the resolution down from 640x480

Excellent, nice 57 hauled Pendolino. It is a shame the resoloution is dropped, but it's not bad quality the way it is.

Nathan, you have such a good talent at videoing trains, that maybe you should visit the North Norfolk Railway or Mid Norfolk Railway soon, those journeys are something you wouldn't want to miss! I have travelled on the NNR 3 times in my past, once on a steam locomotive, possibly a J27 from Sheringham to Holt and back, A 117 DMU from Holt to Sheringham. And one more I cannot remember.
Edit: The Steam locomotive was a BR no. 65984. Unknown what type but was September 1997.

Here is a link to 65894 pulling into Holt Station on 27th September 1997. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30QdmTwNaTU
This was obviously when Holt had only one platform.
This was filmed by my dad because I was only 5 at the time, and I didn't start using a Camcorder until I was 11 going on 12 in 2004.

I will post more videos soon.
