Lovely locomotive David. But which one was it? I couldn't quite make out the name as it flew past. (I think that it was 'City of .....' but that was all I could make out.)
I had the same problem, not sure which was which, but they all look lovely. More video would be wonderful. I enjoyed it!
Lee and Nicole,
The locomotive is City of Birmingham.
More footage has been posted under the topic - 'An English Village Model Train Meet'
Thanks for looking.
All the best
David
"City of Birmingham"...mmm...the Terminal Railway of the Alabama State Docks in
Mobile has a "City of Birmingham" MP-15 switcher; also a "City of Mobile" and "City
of Montgomery"...and so on (8 or so switchers - including a new Genset).
Probably a different "Birmingham" (really?)...and the EMD MP-15 is not really as handsome as the 4-6-2 (again: really?).

Quite right ! The City of Birmingham loco shown in the video clip is actually preserved in a museum in Birmingham, England. Shame really, as it needs to be on the rails !!
