    30 years since I last went round there.....some locos in all states there as usual. The GBRf 60 livery is stunning, so suits that locomotive. Hope we don't lose any more 60s to the stored/withdrawn line, bad enough as it is........just ying ying city now.

    Great video and although like these diesels a tour in the 70s was a different class. Thanks for sharing and wouldn’t mind a visit myself

    Great review, what a shame all the Class 60's rotting away in the yard. As it come to a point now that it's not cost effective to overall any if so why don't they scrap them and tidy the place up. 55yrs ago saw the last steam working on BR because diesel power was the way forward look at it now

    Nice footage Kev. Good of DB to allow this. I hope they are not giving up on the 60s they have got running as I've heard some are due Brush overhauls soon

    I'll never understand why after Privatisation of BR it was better to built and import locomotives from other countries such as America/ Canada and Spain. What was wrong with building them in UK?

    Also, excellent video, tho very disingenuous that the germans use the EWS logo and branding ;)
