46233 Duchess of Sutherland West Coast Mainline Chasing 550th VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello & Welcome to Harnetty Railways
Coming up in this special milestone video 550
We see over the last few days of PRCLT's 46233 Duchess of Sutherland on home turf The West Coast Mainline between Stafford & Carlisle.
We start on Friday the 22nd were we see her with support coach heading through Stafford while on her way to Crewe Heritage Centre from her home at Butterly MRC in readiness to do The Cumbrian Mountain Express.
We overtake her just before Crewe Bashford Hall and I got the camcorder out just in time to see her role in for a signal check before she continued to enter Crewe Heritage Centre Museum.
We move onto the next morning the day of The Railway Touring Company's The Cumbrian Mountain Express. This was a completely new itinerary as it was originally planned to have 46233 to start from Liverpool Lime Street but sadly she started from Crewe after diesel power did the run from Crewe to Liverpool and back outward via St Helens Junction and return via Runcorn.
Soon she tuck over the tour at Crewe ready for the run up the WCML to Carlisle out and return via shap. The reason for this move that 46233 was out of gauge for the Cumbrian Coast Route and there was engineering works going on along the coast.
We 1st see her at Warrington Bank Quay only just as she rushed through the station early just before the late running London train was ready to leave.
We pass her at Wigan North Western were there was rumors that she was having problems with her Automatic Warning System as a result she arrived at Preston were we get her next 10 mins late.
Soon it was time to go and once again only just as the tesco express cleared just in time to see 46233 set off to Carnforth were she would take on water.
We pass her at Carnforth ready to see her next at Oxenholme Lake District from the lineside.
Once again the AWS was playing up again when I got told happily it was sorted and a result despite putting in a impressive performance running 14 mins late.
We see her at the triangle just outside Carlisle as she got serviced. We press onto Penrith North Lakes were we get her on the return run.
We see her pass next to the site of the old branch line from Keswick to Penrith running bang on time.
We pass her at Carnforth as she tuck on water ready for the 88 mile run to Crewe.
And finally we finish this 550th video by seeing 46233 rushing through Lancaster.
This was a great day as on this video marked the official debut of my new camcorder as y notice on the last clip there was a supplement camera on the bottom left of ya screen giving you the viewers excellent High Definition quality in the future of mainline and heritage steam.
Thanks for reading enjoy the 550th video.

Rothschild dynasty built a fortune from slave trade and colonialism ?
he Rothschild family joined the Orange House of Holland (Royal Family) to found the Bank of Amsterdam in the early 1600s, becoming the first private central bank in the world.
In the 1600s, the Dutch with the Rotschilds built in a short time an immense colonial empire. They thus demonstrated the power of their navy, and this empire contributed to the economic development of their brand new country.
Passed under Spanish and Portuguese rule around 1540, the Dutch began to revolt against their new masters in the 1570s. In 1579 they founded the Republic of the United Provinces of the Netherlands, whose independence would not be recognized until 1648 However, as early as 1595, Dutch sailors traveled as far as India following the road opened by the Portuguese Vasco de Gama.
From then on, the Dutch colonial adventure can begin. In 1602 is created the Dutch East India Company (or V.O.C.).
So the VOC was to colonize South Africa and Indonesia and Suriname. The VOC therefore enslaved the predominantly Muslim Indonesian people in the mines and cotton fields and sugar cane.
At present the Rothschilds own a large party of Sri Lanka where the population lives a situation of quasi-slavery and is exploited by the Rotschild family to produce tea.
Finally, the French branch of the Rothschilds financed the colonization of Algeria and enslavement of its Muslim population from 1830 to 1962. The company of the French Indies enslaved the Asian and African population in favor of French slave banks like Rothschilds and Seillère in Haïti.
Today, among his direct descendants of slavers is Baron Ernest-Antoine Seillière of Laborde, who owns several investment funds, and who was the president of Medef (Union of French bosses) and Business Europe (Union of European bosses ). In addition, the Baron is one of the owners of a very large bank, NMSD, which is part of the conglomerate, ABN-AMRO (in the Netherlands), which has collected the assets of Mallet Bank, itself very involved in the history of the slave trade, Gorée (the Mallet Bank financed the expedition that allowed to conquer and exploit the island), and the colonial economy in the West Indies. The Seillère and Rothschild families organized the colonization of Algeria, its looting and the genocide of the Algerian people.
Finally, the Rothschild family financed the colonization of Palestine and enslavement of its Muslim and Christian Arab population for the benefit of European Jewish settlers and Rothschilds.
The English branch of the Rothschilds contributed to the slavery of Irish Catholics.
The Bank of America, or Bank of America, belongs partly to the Rothschilds, such as the Bank of France, the Bank of Holland, and the City of London. The rothschilds owned the Indian companies of those nations involved in the slave trade, like the banks.
These families, who are currently the world's trillionaire families in power, have probably been the greatest slaveholders of all time in world history, but their involvement in evil and perverse trade has always been hidden until recently. In fact, historical accounts have been distorted to highlight the anti-slavery efforts of these ruling elites.Slavery and colonialism have caused the death of more than 100 million black Africans and the death of millions of Irish enslaved the Indians of Amerqiue at least 100 million dead, and recent genocide in the Middle East in Iraq, Syria and Yemen. Communism and Nazism also was financed by the banks caused the deaths of 80 million Russians and 120 million Chinese. In all the slave bankers are responsible for at least the death of 500 million human beings!
All the wars, colonization false revolutions, genocide, pollution, vaccines, smallpox epidemics or plague cancers and famines behind everything there is the Rothschild
England Part 2 || L'Abri
The second part to my UK trip from the past Autumn! I was planning on doing some sort of voiceover and a wrap-up when I got home to explain what L'Abri is like; but L'Abri can't be explained. It is something totally different than anything I have ever done or heard of and it is so difficult to put words to it. So I hope that the people I met while over there will enjoy this video and my friends and family can have a small taste of what it looks like there.

Thanks for taking a look into what I was up to last Autumn, I truly loved it there and want to go back for a full term. Here is a bit more information about L'Abri (specifically the England branch).

Story - Tom Sawyer 29 of 34 - Lost in the Cave—Found But Not Saved
Chapter 29 Lost in the Cave—Found But Not Saved
TOM AND BECKY HAD STARTED THROUGH THE BRANCHING CAVE WITH the other children. Then they had had enough of the games with the others. They had walked farther, talking, and reading the writing on the walls. People had put their names there. Tom and Becky also put their names on the wall.
They came to a place where a small stream of water fell over the rocks. Tom went behind the waterfall, to let his light shine through for Becky's pleasure.
Behind this waterfall Tom found an opening leading down, and he wanted to discover where this branch of the cave went. He made a mark on the wall to guide their return, and started down with Becky following.
They continued farther and farther, making marks where they turned into a new branch, and discovering many wonderful new parts of the cave. One great room was full of hundreds of bats, which were hanging, asleep, on the walls. When the children entered, the bats came flying at the lights, and the children ran.
They came to a dark lake, and sat down at the edge. Now, for the first time, they felt the deep quiet of the place.
Becky said, It is a very long time since I heard the others.
Becky, we are far below them, and far north, or south, or east, or west. We can't hear them here.
Becky was afraid. We should return. Can you find the way, Tom?
I think that I can. But there are those bats. A different way would be better.
We must not get lost. It would be fearful!
They started. But every turn now seemed strange. Becky's tears began to fall.
They stopped. Tom shouted. The answer was a deep quiet. It increased Becky's fear, and Tom began now to feel afraid. Becky said, We must return to the lake and then go through the room full of bats. It would be better than being lost.
But Tom said, Becky, I have been a fool! He had not remembered to make any marks. He had not expected to return to the lake.
Tom, Tom, we are lost! We are lost! We never can get out of this fearful place! Oh, why did we leave the others?
She dropped to the ground and wept so loudly that Tom feared that she might die. He sat down beside her and put his arms around her. He said that he was sorry, that he should never have brought her so far into the cave. Then she said that she also had been wrong; they had both been wrong to come so far.
They started to walk again. Each had a light. Now they decided to use only one light, and to save the other. They walked until they could go no farther without resting. They talked of home, and their friends, and their beds, and they talked of sunlight. Becky's tears started again. And then she was asleep.
Tom watched her. Slowly her face grew peaceful, and then he felt some peace.
She opened her eyes, laughing—but suddenly the laugh ended. Oh, I wish that I had never, never opened my eyes again! Oh, Tom! Do not look at me like that! I shall not say that again.
At that moment a human hand, holding a light, appeared from behind a rock not far away!
Tom shouted.
At once a body followed the hand. It was Indian Joe!
Tom could not move because of fear. He was deeply thankful to see Indian Joe run away.
He did not tell Becky what he had seen or why he had shouted.
They returned to the waterfall. But after another long wait and another sleep, Tom decided to try moving again. They were very hungry now. He thought that perhaps a week had passed.
Becky was not strong enough to go with him. She asked him to return often. She also asked him to return when all hope was gone, and to hold her hand until she died. Tom promised.
He kissed her. Then, with the string in his hand, he started on his hands and knees through one of the openings in the rock. He was sick with fear and he had no hope.

Meon Valley Line - Episode 4 - Churchill's Railway
#EveryDisusedStation - If you like what we do and enjoy our videos please consider supporting us via our Patreon Site here:
Its the 8th December 2018 and once again we have underestimated the short days! We decided to have a look at three lines today which were to include, the Bishops Waltham Branch, The Meon Valley Line and the Basingstoke and Alton Light Valley.
Welcome to Episode 4 of #EveryDisusedStation You can visit the website for progress and information about our adventure. paulwhitewick.co.uk
Paul and Rebecca have decided to embark upon and rather silly challenge which will hopefully see them visit all 6800 (approx. figure) disused stations in the UK. As always the criteria being that we get as close as possible without a) Trespassing and b) endangering ourselves or others. Stations do include those that are in use as heritage lines. (of course they are no longer disused but in the sense of a mainline passenger station, they are certainly on our list).

Take a Break: Green Mountain Ghost Town
GLASTENBURY, Vt. -- Solitude and mystery shroud a town right in our backyard you might never have heard of, because it almost doesn't exist anymore. Glastenbury is only nine miles north of Bennington, but has no local government, and barely any residents. It has no shortage of stories, however, from the serene to the strange. Not many places in the eastern United States appear as lonely as this. Cold winters feel even colder in the deep woods of Glastenbury, Vermont. Linda Gallagher is one of eight residents. It's an extremely unique place, she said. We've traveled around a lot i don't know if I've ever seen another place that's quite like this because of the history of it.Geographically, the town is rugged wilderness. In the late 1930's the state unincorporated Glastenbury. It's only government is one resident appointed supervisor.Here's a settlement that had been prosperous and populated and now it's abandoned which gives it the name of a ghost town, said Tyler Resch, who wrote Glastenbury: The history of a Vermont ghost town . Timber logging and charcoal production put the town on the map, even though Glastenbury was a really a whole other world.It was very much like a cowboy town out west, it was very much a young man's place, not very many women, it was kind of a wild place, said Don Miller, Bennington Museum trustee.There was a hotel, busy kilns burning the fruits of the forest. But once the trees were gone, so were the people. Linda has some of the only remaining reminders that this was desolate mountain once boasted a busy town. She says her home was the original town hall, and her family believes it was built around 1830.What adds to Glastenbury's mystique is mystery. There have been several unsolved murders and disappearances in this area including one which led to the birth of the Vermont State Police.Bennington College student Paula Welden disappeared in December, 1946. She took a winter hike in the mountains. Her body was never found, despite a search.It had been in the hands of the sheriff and the State's Attorney and there were some questions about the quality of the search and so-forth, Resch said.One year earlier, Middie Rivers just vanished. He was deer hunting in the fall, Resch said. He disappeared. No body was ever found, nobody was ever accused.It's extremely windy here, Gallagher said. We get winds that change direction constantly. I can understand how someone might get lost up in the woods.At the same time, claims of the supernatural and a so-called Bennington Triangle add to ghost town storybook -- UFO sightings among them. Linda might believe it, and the thought that her hidden hamlet town might not be isolated, at all.Occasionally, she sees just some odd lights in the sky at times. But nothing that lingers. I keep looking for Bigfoot but I haven't seen it yet.

Alcatraz Prison Tour - San Francisco
The Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary or United States Penitentiary, Alcatraz Island was a maximum high-security federal prison on Alcatraz Island
Subscribe:
The Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary or United States Penitentiary, Alcatraz Island (often just referred to as Alcatraz) was a maximum high-security federal prison on Alcatraz Island, 1.25 miles (2.01 km) off the coast of San Francisco, California, which operated from 1934 to 1963.
The main prison building was built in 1910–12 during its time as a United States Army military prison; Alcatraz had been the site of a citadel since the 1860s. The United States Disciplinary Barracks, Pacific Branch on Alcatraz was acquired by the United States Department of Justice on October 12, 1933, and the island became a prison of the Federal Bureau of Prisons in August 1934 after the buildings were modernized to meet the requirements of a top-notch security prison. Given this high security and the location of Alcatraz in the cold waters and strong currents of San Francisco Bay, the prison operators believed Alcatraz to be escape-proof and America's strongest prison.
Alcatraz was designed to hold prisoners who continuously caused trouble at other federal prisons. One of the world's most notorious and best known prisons over the years, Alcatraz housed some 1,576 of America's most ruthless criminals including Al Capone, Robert Franklin Stroud (the Birdman of Alcatraz), George Machine Gun Kelly, Bumpy Johnson, Rafael Cancel Miranda,[3] Mickey Cohen, Arthur R. Doc Barker, and Alvin Creepy Karpis (who served more time at Alcatraz than any other inmate). It also provided housing for the Bureau of Prisons staff and their families. A total of 36 prisoners made 14 escape attempts during the 29 years of the prison's existence, the most notable of which were the violent escape attempt of May 1946 known as the Battle of Alcatraz, and the arguably successful Escape from Alcatraz by Frank Morris, John Anglin, and Clarence Anglin in June 1962 in one of the most intricate escapes ever devised. Faced with high maintenance costs and a poor reputation, Alcatraz closed on March 21, 1963.
The three-story cellhouse included the main four blocks of the jail, A-Block, B-Block, C-Block, and D-Block, the warden's office, visitation room, the library, and the barber shop. The prison cells typically measured 9 feet (2.7 m) by 5 feet (1.5 m) and 7 feet (2.1 m) high. The cells were primitive and lacked privacy, with a bed, a desk and a washbasin and toilet on the back wall, with few furnishings except a blanket. African-Americans were segregated from the rest in cell designation due to racial abuse being prevalent. D-Block housed the worst inmates and five cells at the end of it were designated as The Hole, where badly behaving prisoners would be sent for periods of punishment, often brutally so. The dining hall and kitchen lay off the main building in an extended part where both prisoners and staff would eat three meals a day together. The Alcatraz Hospital was above the dining hall.
Corridors of the prison were named after major American streets such as Broadway and Michigan Avenue. Working at the prison was considered a privilege for inmates and many of the better inmates were employed in the Model Industries Building and New Industries Building during the day, actively involved in providing for the military in jobs such as sewing and woodwork and performing various maintenance and laundry chores.
Today the penitentiary is a public museum and one of San Francisco's major tourist attractions, attracting some 1.5 million visitors annually. The former prison is now operated by the National Park Service's Golden Gate National Recreation Area, and the badly eroding buildings of the former prison have been subject to restoration works in recent times and maintained.

HD Gwrych Castle Abergele North Wales Drone Footage Aug 2017
A simple short video that shows the amazing site that is Gwrych Castle in Abergele North Wales , this footage was taken whilst on holiday there Aug 2017
Some info about the castle :-
Gwrych Castle was erected between 1819 and 1825 at the behest of Lloyd Hesketh Bamford-Hesketh, grandfather of Winifred Cochrane, Countess of Dundonald. From 1894 until 1924, when the Countess died, it was the residence of the Dundonald family. The Countess left the castle in her will to King George V and the then Prince of Wales (who later became King Edward VIII). However, the gift was refused and the castle passed to the Venerable Order of Saint John. In 1928, Douglas Cochrane, 12th Earl of Dundonald, purchased the castle for £78,000, selling the contents to meet the cost.
During World War II, the Government used the castle to house 200 Jewish refugees run by the Jewish Zionist youth movement Bnei Akiva.Following the war, the castle left the Dundonald family and was open to the public for twenty years. It was called The Showpiece of Wales at this time, and attracted many visitors.[4] It was also used as a training venue for the English World Middleweight boxing champion Randolph Turpin in the early 1950s. In the early 60s it was an occasional venue for the famous motorcycle Dragon Rally and in the 70s it was used as a centre for medieval re-enactments, attracting tourists with such events as jousting and mock banquets.[citation needed] One such occasional use was the holding of the British Youth Festival's event for left-wing youngsters and students in the summer of 1961. Organised principally by members of the Lancashire branch of the Young Communist League, the ten-day event was notable not only for the attendance and performance of Robin Hall and Jimmy McGregor, but also for the swarm of journalists, led by the now-defunct News of the World.
The castle was last open to the public in 1985. Thereafter, it started to decline.[2] It was bought in 1989 by Nick Tavaglione, an American businessman, for £750,000. However, his plans to renovate the building were not carried out. As a result, the castle was extensively looted and vandalised, becoming little more than a derelict shell, although it was used in 1996 as the backdrop for Prince Valiant, a film starring Edward Fox, Joanna Lumley and Katherine Heigl.
During the period of Tavaglione's ownership, historian Mark Baker campaigned for the castle to be brought back to its days of glory—a campaign that he started when he was twelve years old. Baker was instrumental in forming the Gwrych Castle Preservation Trust, dedicated to ensuring the castle's future. The condition of the property was monitored by the Trust, who lobbied Conwy council to compulsorily purchase the property, eventually placing enough pressure on the American owner, who put it up for sale in March 2006.
City Services Ltd, trading as Clayton Homes and Clayton Hotels, bought the castle in January 2007 for £850,000, after it failed to reach its £1.5m reserve price at the 2 June 2006 auction. On 30 April 2007, Clayton Hotels announced a 3-year project, costing £6,000,000, to renovate the castle and convert it into a 90-bedroom 5-star hotel, creating 100 jobs. The project was subject to planning permission, but had the support of the Trust.] Clayton Hotels spent about half a million pounds on its plans, clearing the site and rebuilding areas.[7] After Clayton Hotels was placed in administration, new developers obtained fresh planning permission in November 2012 from Conwy County Borough Council for the castle to be converted into a luxury hotel with 75 bedrooms and associated facilities
London Vlog - Eye, Dungeons, Sealife, Shreks Adventure, River Cruise & More - SJBBVideos
Join Sam & Liam as we embark on an adventure to London to experience all of the Merlin attractions. We first started the VLOG on the train on the way to Madame Tussauds where we take our first ever experience of this type of attraction. We were very impressed with this attraction as it has a lot more to offer than just the wax figures such as the Scream horror maze, spirit of London, marvels 4D cinema and star wars. When we finished in Madame Tussauds we headed back over to London Waterloo where we embarked on a magical bus ride to far far away for a nice walk through and interactive attraction experience. Shrek's adventure is a new addition this year and is not yet available for all annual pass holders until next year for standard. Premium annual pass holders can access this attraction after 1st September without any issues. When we finished Shrek's Adventure we boarded a ship and took a nice cruise around the London River Thames. If you wanted to see a full version of this cruise then check out the footage recorded from last year. When we got back to land after the 45 minutes cruise ride we headed to the sealife attraction. Inside the Sealife attraction we took a slow walk around the attraction and saw a lot of different fish and our favorite part.. THE PENGUINS! The sealife was extremely quiet later in the afternoon rather than last years visit during the morning - mid-afternoon. The last two attractions we had left to experience was the London Dungeons which was great fun but unfortunately due to the way Shrek's Adventure & London Dungeons operates we are unable to record any footage in the vlog.
After a very long day in London we headed to our final attraction which was the London Eye which is a great attraction for people to do as a first time but if you are planning a visit to this attraction then try and experience it at night.
Tip: Standard Merlin Annual Passholders do not get access to any of the London Merlin attractions during August along with selected other dates. Check these dates out for each attraction before experiencing these attractions.

There's No Way Out Alcatraz Prison Full Documentary
Prisons Documentaries
The Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary or United States Penitentiary, Alcatraz Island (often just referred to as Alcatraz) was a maximum high-security Federal prison on Alcatraz Island, 1.25 miles (2.01 km) off the coast of San Francisco, California, USA, which operated from 1934 to 1963.
The main prison building was built in 1910–12 during its time as a United States Army military prison; Alcatraz had been the site of a citadel since the 1860s. The United States Disciplinary Barracks, Pacific Branch on Alcatraz was acquired by the United States Department of Justice on October 12, 1933, and the island became a prison of the Federal Bureau of Prisons in August 1934 after the buildings were modernized to meet the requirements of a top-notch security prison. Given this high security and the location of Alcatraz in the cold waters and strong currents of San Francisco Bay, the prison operators believed Alcatraz to be escape-proof and America's strongest prison.
Alcatraz was designed to hold prisoners who continuously caused trouble at other federal prisons. One of the world's most notorious and best known prisons over the years, Alcatraz housed some 1,576 of America's most ruthless criminals including Al Capone, Robert Franklin Stroud (the Birdman of Alcatraz), George Machine Gun Kelly, Bumpy Johnson, Rafael Cancel Miranda,[3] Mickey Cohen, Arthur R. Doc Barker, James Whitey Bulger, and Alvin Creepy Karpis (who served more time at Alcatraz than any other inmate). It also provided housing for the Bureau of Prisons staff and their families. A total of 36 prisoners made 14 escape attempts during the 29 years of the prison's existence, the most notable of which were the violent escape attempt of May 1946 known as the Battle of Alcatraz, and the arguably successful Escape from Alcatraz by Frank Morris, John Anglin, and Clarence Anglin in June 1962 in one of the most intricate escapes ever devised. Faced with high maintenance costs and a poor reputation, Alcatraz closed on March 21, 1963.
The three-story cellhouse included the main four blocks of the jail, A-Block, B-Block, C-Block, and D-Block, the warden's office, visitation room, the library, and the barber shop. The prison cells typically measured 9 feet (2.7 m) by 5 feet (1.5 m) and 7 feet (2.1 m) high. The cells were primitive and lacked privacy, with a bed, a desk and a washbasin and toilet on the back wall, with few furnishings except a blanket. African-Americans were segregated from the rest in cell designation due to racial abuse being prevalent. D-Block housed the worst inmates and five cells at the end of it were designated as The Hole, where badly behaving prisoners would be sent for periods of punishment, often brutally so. The dining hall and kitchen lay off the main building in an extended part where both prisoners and staff would eat three meals a day together. The Alcatraz Hospital was above the dining hall.
Corridors of the prison were named after major American streets such as Broadway and Michigan Avenue. Working at the prison was considered a privilege for inmates and many of the better inmates were employed in the Model Industries Building and New Industries Building during the day, actively involved in providing for the military in jobs such as sewing and woodwork and performing various maintenance and laundry chores.
Today the penitentiary is a public museum and one of San Francisco's major tourist attractions, attracting some 1.5 million visitors annually. The former prison is now operated by the National Park Service's Golden Gate National Recreation Area, and the badly eroding buildings of the former prison have been subject to restoration works in recent times and maintained.
TROLLS WORLD TOUR | OFFICIAL TRAILER
TROLLS WORLD TOUR – In theaters April 2020
Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake return in an all-star sequel to DreamWorks Animation’s 2016 musical hit: Trolls World Tour. In an adventure that will take them well beyond what they’ve known before, Poppy (Kendrick) and Branch (Timberlake) discover that they are but one of six different Troll tribes scattered over six different lands and devoted to six different kinds of music: Funk, Country, Techno, Classical, Pop and Rock. Their world is about to get a lot bigger and a whole lot louder.
A member of hard-rock royalty, Queen Barb (Rachel Bloom), aided by her father King Thrash (Ozzy Osbourne), wants to destroy all other kinds of music to let rock reign supreme. With the fate of the world at stake, Poppy and Branch, along with their friends — Biggie (James Corden), Chenille (Caroline Hjelt), Satin (Aino Jawo), Cooper (Ron Funches) and Guy Diamond (Kunal Nayyar) — set out to visit all the other lands to unify the Trolls in harmony against Barb, who’s looking to upstage them all.
Cast as members of the different musical tribes is one the largest, and most acclaimed, groups of musical talent ever assembled for an animated film. From the land of Funk are Mary J. Blige, George Clinton and Anderson .Paak. Representing Country is Kelly Clarkson as Delta Dawn, with Sam Rockwell as Hickory and Flula Borg as Dickory. J Balvin brings Reggaeton, while Ester Dean adds to the Pop tribe. Anthony Ramos brings the beat in Techno and Jamie Dornan covers smooth jazz. World-renowned conductor and violinist Gustavo Dudamel appears as Trollzart and Charlyne Yi as Pennywhistle from the land of Classical. And Kenan Thompson raps as a hip-hop newborn Troll named Tiny Diamond.
Trolls World Tour is directed by Walt Dohrn, who served as co-director on Trolls, and is produced by returning producer Gina Shay. The film is co-directed by David P. Smith and co-produced by Kelly Cooney Cilella, both of whom worked on the first Trolls. Trolls World Tour will also feature original music by Justin Timberlake, who earned an Oscar® nomination for his song for 2016’s Trolls, “Can’t Stop the Feeling!,” and a score by Theodore Shapiro (2016’s Ghostbusters, The Devil Wears Prada).
