Preserved Steam UK - Best Bits of 2023

Описание: 2023... What a year! I've loved every moment of it! From the panicking about transport to walking down Main Roads it's been a blast! I've briefly driven a handful of steam engines, been all over the country and seen both Standard Gauge and Narrow Gauge steam trains doing what they do best.

I want to thank everybody who's Watched, commented, subscribed and shared the word about my channel, creating these videos can get tedious but seeing some of the heartfelt comments I get keeps me going and I assure you that 2024 won't slow down in terms of content! (maybe some higher quality journeys and different types of content for sure but overall it'll still be about preserved steam here on Preserved Steam UK!)

Sorry for the video coming out later than usual but overall it's been a ball ache to edit and choose clips because how good 2023 was soo I hope your favourite moments made the cut!
