    DONCASTER STATION on 4th February 1987
    Continuing with my archive of video recording between the years of 1986 to 2001 this clip is of Doncaster taken on 04/02/1987. I hope the video takes you back to this period with fond memories. Feel free to comment, good or bad, all comments are read and greatly appreciated,but it is not always possible to answer each individually. Sit back and enjoy this latest production remembering all those now long gone Locomotive classes and other types of traction. Many thanks for all subscriptions and all of those viewers who have kindly shown an interest in my material.

    Brings back memories, I used to walk over that footbridge going to and from work at the plant. Valuable footage reminding me of my favourite era and useful for modeling reference.

    That 150 at 3.10 must of been brand new, plastic covers still on the seats. No full yellow front either. No sign of any electrics yet I wounded if those wires are energised . The big grey building across the car park was the BR Eastern region head quarters , back in the day we used to call it the Embassy. I saw my first 91 at donny ,they ran with Mk3s and a hst dvt on the other end . Me and my mate jumped on and went to Leeds and back . Those were the days , thanks for uploading this , you have made a 54 year old feel young again 😊
