- The Poulton & Wyre Railway have recently purchased a vintage class 108 DMU. This video is hopefully one of many showing the volunteers working to bring it back in to service.
Good luck to the Poulton and Wyre on their DMU restoration. A classic will roll again.
Well done lads, fair dues to the lot of you.
2000 miles on the clock , only used by a vicer to get to church on sundays honest govenor
good video
Should have purchased an HST when they get taken out of service.I know they will cost a lot more.it would be amazing to see an HST on this route as I live in Blackpool.
An HST would only ever more about 150 yards in each direction on the length of track they have access to.
@@1701_FyldeFlyer as a volunteer i can confirm this.
which DMU came as 3 cars with the 2 end cars having the motors and the exhausts ran up the gap in between to the roof? (used to be on the Oxford - Banbury route in BR times.)
That same year earlier in the year when 73129 had her last run. :(
Would love to know how this has turned out!
It's in 3 pieces with each car on separate panels of track. The line itself is no nearer opening.
So was this locomotive finished up and put back into service
It'll never get put into service. The Leyland shutter they restored hasnt been near the track either.
They'll never run it, just like the line will never be reopened either. It's all a pipedream
Doesn't look in to bad condition after a good scrub

Is this particular 108 up and running now
It has undergone more thorough repairs than what is seen in the video and is able to run. It just needs to actually be placed on the Poulton & Wyre Railway itself. Its currently at the (disconnected) repair site near Burn Naze.
@@390052Knight Oh great to hear! I hope this brilliant unit is back in action soon
What a superb video and hard work on the clean up. It tells a story as it goes along. On the subject of Poulton and Railway tracks etc please allow this video ruclips.net/video/8XyviUn59QY/видео.html as it is of interest to those who see yours too. If you add a comment and post a link to this video, of course it will stay up. :) Jane
Update.......2020.!
If we ever get out of Lockdown I will record another video. Some updates are on the Poulton & Wyre Railway Facebook page.
Whens the next episode.
2:56 Shouldn't you be helping to clean the DMU? Less of that horse play.
Really washing is considered restoration
This is just one small step in the restoration process. The original plan was to create extra video updates as time goes by; unfortunately circumstances don't always permit this.
My God!!! Look at the age of the men doing all the work!!! They have to be retired!!!! Where is all the young men say 18 to 40!!!!!!!! Why are they not out there by the dozens working on them. The white working class??????
