    9 x 90's...must have been a weekend. Some great views of Mossend. Remember being there in the very early 90s seeing some proper traction back then.

      Hi Steve, it was a week day visit. I was surprised so many were sat there also.

    Fantastic to watch. Used to know Mr Stirling that owned most of the filmed area. He was a lovely man who is now with his God.

    Great footage of a once greater place. Reduced traffic and vastly reduced track layout. I used to stand beside the old control building that has since been flattened. You can still see the base of the building beside the 90s. And it was once all sidings where the container yard is now.

      Thanks very much 👍 That does seem like a typical theme for most of the major UK rail yards from years gone by.. Much reduced now and a shadow of their former glories.

      I was only last week watching some 1980’s vids of Mossend Yard on You tube. Triple header 37’s pulling out with heavy coal trains. I know all freight yards look very different (that’s if they still exist) nowadays but it’s still a shock to see such a reduction in tracks. 😢

    Great video. I was last there in 1990 when triple headed 37’s thrashed out on loaded MGR!
    Just curious though why you didn’t go to far end of yard, I think that’s where you used to be able to park up, and where I photographed the 37’s.
    And finally, noticed all the 90’s are facing the same way (looking at the pantograph layout on the roof) - that can’t be a coincidence can it?! 🤔

      Hi Phil, there was better visibility from the end of the yard I filmed at so more scope to fly the drone in a wider area 👍

    What is this, a yard that is not a weed raddled waste land? What is this mystical place?
    Can mortals visit it and worship at the spectacle of actual revenue freight trains, not just road building and mow trains?
