Trains at: Long Buckby, WCML, 31/08/16

An excellent afternoons session spent at Long Buckby on the Northampton branch of the West Coast Mainline where we see plenty of services from London Midland and various freight from Freightliner and a loco convoy from DB Cargo UK consisting of the following engines: 90036, 67030, 66174, 59203 and 92036 working 0A06 Crewe TMD to Wembley.
I really did enjoy my time here and its definitely somewhere I would return to. My next station is Northampton.
You can now find me on Facebook through the group Tornado922, there you will find regular updates, videos and photos from all of my goings on throughout 2016

Another spectacular film mate and a big thumbs up from me, convoys front 3 ere 90036, 67030 and 66174

[@Tornado922]

Thanks very much mate I'm glad you enjoyed watching this, I loved catching that convoy

[@KTVTransport]

Brilliant video mate. Great shot of that convoy. 😄

[@Tornado922]

Thanks very much mate, It was a surprise to catch that convoy passing through

[@syedhoque8009]

Nice Video! :) Very unusual seeing a convoy of locos speeding by.

[@Tornado922]

Thanks very much, I wasn't expecting to see that convoy

[@EWSTrains]

59203 use to be called Vale of Pickering

[@Tornado922]

I never knew that

[@jamesthebongoman]

The passenger service seems to be very regular there - not bad for an almost wayward halt. oh and 5 locos in one sighting ain't bad!

[@Tornado922]

Its a very good service that they get here, the station can accommodate 8 car sets should they be required but mostly it's just 4 car trains that arrive and depart from Birmingham New Street

[@Trainspotter11_]

Awesomely Fimed Their. Really Enjoyed It. I Saw That Convoy At Cheddington And I Did Do A video of it :)

[@Tornado922]

Thanks very much, I watched your video the other day. Really good

[@sam4468_]

You may have also analysed the footage but I got 90036, 67030, 66174, 59203 and 92036. Could not see the class numbers of the 59 so wasn't sure if it was a 59 or 66. Did a bit of searching though and I think 66203 could be in EWS livery (or Euro Cargo Rail livery, a former EWS subsidiary and very similar livery). Also DB Cargo UK do operate a few 59/2s they acquired from National Power, numbering 59201-59206.

[@Tornado922]

Yeah I found the numbers later that day, someone happened to film that convoy passing through Stafford and I was able to acquire the numbers through there. Although I never knew that 66203 had a previous livery other than EWS. I knew that DB operate a few of the 59's as I've seen them mostly operate down the southern end of the country

[@sam4468_]

I think it's almost identical to the EWS livery except instead of the letters 'EWS' on each side there is/was a 'Euro Cargo Rail' logo. Euro Cargo Rail was EWS' French based freight operator and used a number of EWS 66s. I have no idea if 66203 is still abroad or back in the UK, or if it still retains its ever-so-slightly, marginally different but for all intents and purposes EWS, livery.

Brilliant video

[@Tornado922]

Thank you

[@harryvince]

The convoy was 90036,67030,66076,66093 and the 92

[@Tornado922]

I managed to find it out at the time of uploading the film as someone had uploaded photos of the convoy passing through Stafford

[@tomtrainspotter7231]

90 Mayhem! Northampton should be full of freight when you go. you may even have to make it a 2 part!

[@Tornado922]

There was so much freight passing through in that short space of time it was brilliant. Northampton was great but I only filmed the one part

[@WestCountrySteamVideos]

Great video mate :)

[@Tornado922]

Thanks very much

[@southerntrains.3773]

At 4:34 it was 90036 67030 66174 92 032
but the db second to last I couldn't see.

[@Tornado922]

Seems like everyone managed to get the numbers apart from me haha

[@alexn643]

Great video

[@Tornado922]

Thanks very much

[@westcoastrail2667]

The numbers on the convoy were (I think) 90036 67028 66174 66???.

[@Tornado922]

I eventually found the numbers due to someone filming that convoy on the same day, I've included the numbers in the description

[@KasabianFan44]

1:13 Both trains departed simultaneously... that's pretty impressive :D

[@Tornado922]

I do love it when I get to capture 2 trains departing at the same time

[@thehstman]

The Convoy Was 90036-67030-66174-59203-92036 On This Mate?????
Great Video Mate..

[@Tornado922]

Ta much

[@ash.l2175]

i always wonder why the 350's make that beeping like noise when they start up and just as there slowidown what is it.

[@Tornado922]

Someone did tell me the reason but I cant remember what it is

[@ash.l2175]

Tornado922 No problem i had a look about and found it was something to do with the traction motors not sure if thats right tho.

[@therailwaychannel1902]

have you been up to Warrington Bank Quay before ?

[@Tornado922]

I've passed through on the train but I've never filmed there

[@phillipwatson2919]

Would you do the likes of the Wigan or Warrington stations

[@Tornado922]

I will be doing them at some stage this year

[@Jamiereactwitholliesstudios]

Have you gone to owees Park yet

[@Tornado922]

Not that I'm aware of
