steamsounds - Riding behind GWR steam

Halls & Manors

The 10 tracks on this CD include some of my best examples of on-train recordings made while riding behind GWR Halls and Manors. With a playing time of almost 80 minutes there are recordings of Halls on the Welsh Marches route a Manor on the Cambrian Coast, a Manor footplate ride on the East Lancs Railway and a Hall and a Manor double heading on the steep climb to Hemerdon.
The CD comes complete with detailed notes which you can read here. You'll need Adobe Reader which you can download for free here.

Available at just £5.00 including UK postage. To obtain details of how to get a copy or for any further information please see this page.
