Trains in the 1980s - Class 47/4 Compilation - Part 1 (47 424 - 47 490)

Absolutely fantastic.
47/4's have always been my favourite locos and to see them on the kind of workings I covered as a youth...😊

Many thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Watch out for part 2 (47 500 onwards) and part 3 (47 602 onwards) to come over the next 2 weeks. 😊

Date of the 47430 clip has rather poignant memories

Lockerbie? Remember it being a terrible shock at the time. Do you mind me asking if you were affected personally ?

[@AndreiTupolev]

Carlisle hardly looks any different, except the roof's cleaner, and there's a lot more weeds 😊

[@OldOakTrains]

Too true. I had been there the week I put this compilation together, and was thinking back to August 1988, remembering how young I’d been 😊😊😊.
