- 7 loco haulage in 24 hours. Travel with us on the 24 hour Railtour on July 19th/20th 2002, from Newport to Crewe, Preston, Carlisle, Mossend Yard, Falkirk, Polmadie, Paisley, Glasgow, Carlisle again for steam, Preston, Crewe and Newport. In the days of open windows on railtours, I was able to catch quite a few freights and shots of freight yards too. It was early days for clips of the then new Pendolino, but a tip off proved genuine when we pass one on Shap; in daylight on the return run.
Ohhh yes. I was on this tour from Newport on the Friday night. Bailed at New Street on the return, then back to Coventry for a well earned sleep! Great tour and a great upload. Thank you Mike.
Great video thanks for sharing John
More to come soon, just takes time to re edit these old tapes
Had a look on Six Bells Junction. Seems like the tour missed most the freight branches it was supposed to do. Was that a bit of a let down at the time ?
I think the leg stretch at Preston is platform 12 at Crewe.
Oop! So I did make one mistake, thanks for your help. It's a long job going through these old VHS 3 hour tapes and re editing. At the time of recording You Tube hadn't even been thought about, let alone sharing on the internet Thanks again
Your videos are always much appreciated.
As you say it is great to be able to share these memories of the 'recent' past on You Tube.
@@nelson408. Still plenty more to come, I have over 700 x 1 hour DV tapes to re edit! Just takes time
