The video looks nice.

I saw and photographed this tour going through Devon down to Penzance on Thursday. It was nice to see and hear it.

I knew nothing about that tour, but by a lucky chance I saw 50008 departing from Kidderminster with the ECS on the Sunday:

Thanks - Excellent, I traveled on this train to Bath about three years ago. Great day out and great on board service.
We even went up on the footplate on arrival back at Victoria.
Highly recommended al round.

Belmond British Pullman.
Both trains filmed at Chilworth, accelerating away from the water stop at Shalford.

What a great idea for a video. Clan Line was well into her stride wasn’t she?

Yes.I think Clan Line won by a short head, although that may be down to experience. She’s much more familiar with the route than Tornado.

Thanks for the video - do the new escalators run faster than older models? (Just an impression from near the start of your video.)

Apparently not. Escalators on London Underground travel at a standard 0.75 m/sec on a standard 30° incline.
Escalators in the new Elizabeth line stations will travel at a speed of 0.75 metres per second, with the exception of Canary Wharf where 9 of the 17 escalators travel at 0.65 metres per second due to a lower Escalator rise and available space for installation.
