Not having a tripod with me, a pillar provided useful support for the camera.

Really nice quality picture on that video. Looked at the comments, what on earth is "hellfire"?

Thank you for your kind words.

I don't know who wrote the comments, but essentially, when railway enthusiasts say "hellfire", they mean very good! This is often in reference to the loud sound or the intensity of exhaust fumes ("clag") produced by locomotives. Occasionally, it may simply be an appreciation of the look of a machine, particularly if it recreates a former era.
