Would I be right in assuming you accessed there via the seawall path via the Station &/or the bridge by the old Lifeboat house?

RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted May 22, 2014 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted May 22, 2014 I think those jolly fellows really ought to be wearing life preservers, at least when it is high tide and a bit rough as it is today. Risk assessment required immediately. P Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granitechops Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 If I pause the player, there's a ruddy great 'play' arrow in the centre of the picture - how do you avoid this please? Ah, I was also on HD 720 without knowing it when you pause the cam & the big arrow comes up try & stop the cam so the bit you want is to the left of the arrow then you can CROP the screen grab leaving the arrow out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Captain. Somebody forgot to put a shilling in the meter on one of the coaches and without power we were not allowed forward until the situation had been sorted on safety grounds. It's not like the old days when we used to take the bulbs out.SS Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trisonic Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Wow, you must have better eyes than me. I just turned the Webcam on here in the ‘States and thought it was just two locos. What were they? 47’s? To be honest if the line was not in such a picturesque location it would be akin to watching paint dry... (to be fair I grew up right on the GER mainline where there was even an interesting motley variety of commuter EMU’s). I notice that the tide is still in!!! Best, Pete.
