Remember spending my childhood coming from Greenock spending my summer holidays at my granny's house on Broadway in Belfast during 70s-80s (yes holidays in a war zone !!) And remember getting the boat train late at night in Larne on these trains with nearly every window smashed , mental.
Good videos of these old trains, brings back memories for sure! I remember on a still evening the distinctive engine noise of these could be heard from miles away as they headed out of Bangor towards Belfast!

Beautiful Sounding Commuter trains❤️
Brilliant video, I've never heard such vocal traction motors on a Thumper before 3:06
Wow, VHS footage from 2009. You don't see that every day...
Brilliant stuff!
They look like class 156
Reminds me of my childhood and adolescent years, CAF trains don't sound as good
