This series of programmes will take us to classic
stations, depots and other railway locations around
Britain, where the locomotives, liveries and rolling
stock are from an era that is now long gone.
Loco-hauled passenger and freight trains are in
abundance, but we will see shunters and multiple units as
well.
Volume 4 in the series of programmes
looks at four locations.
Chapter 1:
Inverness station in the years 1987 & 1988.
Passenger trains are in the hands of Class 47s and 37s
but 20s and 26s are still occasional visitors to the
Highland Capital.
Chapter 2: Manchester
Victoria in 1983 & 1984
Absolutely classic
scenes from Manchester Victoria in these two years sees
classes 25, 31, 40, 45, 46, 47, 56, and even an 87 making
an appearance
Chapter 3: Leamington Spa in
1989
Naturally, 47s are the staple motive power on
the passenger turns but not solely as you will see.
Freights range from BR blue 47s to 56s and even class
20s
Chapter 4: Barnetby 1990 & 1991.
Back in the early '90s, motive power wasn't so
predictable; hence we see 20s, 31s, 47s, 56s and 60s
which are just appearing on the scene.
Liveries of
course are from that period.
Full
captions with minimal commentary.
