This is a trip down memory lane...
From the 1930's come: - Ancient 4 wheel coaches in Kent, rare colour film of Coronation Scots at
Crewe, and at Siloth, the local train comes in and coal trucks are unloaded. In B/W steam Commuter services in London. Then Wartime, A4's in Black Livery, Underground trains of many types. Afterwards Railway reconstruction.
A look at Workshops comes next. (Swindon) The L.N.E.R.'s Electrification Scheme opens. Then - Belfast Steam service to Larne. Many 1960's sheds, Harrow Stanmore Steam branch, K.E.S.R. taken over by Preservationists. A.4's going into retirement.
One or two steam trains at Euston, Paddington and many more at Clapham. The changes at Kings Cross before Electrification, 31's dipping down to Moorgate. A brief look at Industrials leads to the last Brighton-Belle. On the Underground, Victoria Line opens, and B.R. takes over the Moorgate
Underground Line. Even Diesels are scrapped - Western Class 52's and the last Deltic from Kings
Cross. Many more trains are included.
Duration 45 mins
Economical Commentary by David Coleman.
Edited by Wilf Watters (Online Video 1985)
Quite - nay - very sad the demise of steam…and I agree with the narrator as regards the « evil smelly box » that was diesel…
What a beautiful livery the royal Scot was
Liverpool Street Station scenes….The thought of those passengers getting the carriage doors closed from their risky inside carriage positions and with real risks of getting their fingers pinched let alone squeezed in their daring but necessary operation to close the swinging doors really gives me a right nasty and uneasy reaction…
Highly enjoyable documentary with a beautifully spoken commentary by Mr Coleman. such a pleasant change these days to not having the ears offended by vulgar inarticulate voice-overs
22:58
The class 40 shown departing the station at
Today 6 A4s like the deltics have survived into preservation
Can anyone tell me the name of the opening song please
Clapham Junction - busiest station in Europe for number of trains passing through, whether stopping or express. However Tokyo Shinjuku is the busiest in the World. Shinjuku station today sees around 3.1 Million passengers per DAY. Or more than all London terminals for a week !
As of today Bahamas is still operational like the other jubilee locos like kolaphur Leander and Galatea
whats the song called?
23:14
better keep them well maintained. you never know when one day you might need the once more. coal you have plenty in- newcastle-, oil you might have to buy very expensively once Scotland gains independence. and with it the North Sea oil...
Diesel single parcels unit pulling a train.must be western or midland region
Do you mean Steam Locomotives remembered ,or railway engines remembered? … ‘Trains’ ??
Flying Scotsman is back as 60103 as of today
Good shots and not bad commentary, but please, please that silly song. Whatever possessed you?
