Thank you for your uploads. Seeing footage as old as this takes me back to when I was a boy and my mummy-moo used to take me to a pub next to a railway line every Friday evening so I could watch trains go by.
Yes they were getting quite frequent there then working all sorts, I have another set of clips at Didcot with one on a Freightliner ...quite a sight... regards Brian
37372 with those French style rectangular buffers. That must have been just after Virgin had supposedly introduced their all-new super duper timetable, but they still had quite a number of loco-hauled trains running, it seems.
Brian Tucker Thanks Brian - videos like this one are invaluable for me as it’s rare to find decent footage of my modelling era. The shot of the 58 in this film is probably the best I’ve found sound and picture quality wise .
Great video. Railways where definitely more interesting then compared to now.
Thanks very much appreciated

Many thanks for your great uploads loved the 47's speeding round the curve and see 2x58s
Glad you enjoyed it
That was very enjoyable Brian, that old 58 at the end looked in a bit of a state....Regards...Bob
