Rood Ashton Hall Leicester - Newark-on-Trent

My short film follows steam locomotive Rood Ashton Hall from Croft Hill in Leicestershire through to Newark-On-Trent on a cold and frosty morning in December 2014.

The Sun was casting long shadows over the frozen ground as Rood Ashton Hall thundered and steamed along the tracks and from my high vantage point on Croft hill the scene echoed one from the Polar Express Film.

Next up on the route was troon way bridge where with the skyline of Leicester as a backdrop the engine steamed directly toward the camera filling the air with smoke.

Last up was Newark-On-Trent where we see the engine speeding over the river and onward to the Christmas market in Lincoln.
