You guys are not very patriotic. Don't you want Britain to make locos again?
First of all, excellent videography, though I'd prefer the 'music' of the locomotives themselves than the added music.
Well the UK does have some train manufacturing left, but the expertise and capability to build a purely UK loco from scratch has long gone. Partly due to economics and partly due to political dogma I'm afraid - an irony lost on many DM readers
However, while we lost mass manufacturing capability in heavy industry, for example the steel industry, we've gained in specialist skills. Look at the automotive industry...Rover lost badly against the German and the Japanese manufacturers, but the UK still has a whole host of gems like Triumph bikes, Rolls Royce* and pretty much all of the F1 stables except Ferrari.
*both of which might be owned elsewhere as is typical but the skills are still in the UK.
Anyway, back to the video, really enjoyed watching it; you've captured the scenes really, really well!
