Shopping In Nuneaton Market 22 February 2020
Back in the days when people knew each other. The country has been torn apart by the foreign invasion! Life isn’t the same anymore!
I was at gamecock barracks Bramcote in 1989
Happy times in nuneaton 70s 80s my dad delivered bread for mother's pride to shops superstores ie cedar road coop, coniston and wood street coops plus more .he used go to the lambys snooker hall too .he drove the ford d series in frears and blacks colours then the fg550 leyland in mothets pride colours then the leyland terrier in the windmill bakery colours. Lot of happy times and nice people .
Please fix the sound. The volume is way to low to hear
I was there
Me too
I went there that June day
I did also
A Day To Remember
I was there in 1975...
@ Holy Shit thats crazy
They are decimating the woods now because of health and safety, chopping down healthy trees, no real land management
the year is 1985 i can work it out threw the age of the rder truck rental truck and i knew the driver of the freddy allen truck and he retired in 86 so deffo 85
Wow! That was amazing. Lots of floats and walkers. Massive turnout back then. Looked a lovely warm day too 😊
The reporting number is suggesting it was going to Glasgow a number of drivers knowing it was restricted to 20 MPH but not stopping to report warning light on speed restriction was out were asked why they had not reported it !
Love how the ambulance transformed as it went out the door...
I wonder what programme this is. Looks interesting, wouldn’t mind watching the whole thing.
Was this Martyn Lame playing the organ?
yes, indeed it was
@@NuneatonMemories sadly he died recently in 2019
@@ianmclaughlan sad news indeed - if memory serves correctly it was a 24 hour charity event where he played for 24 hours non-stop (comfort beaks etc allowed)
That was an amazing trip back in time. The music in the second half was haunting...what was it?
it would have been from www.bensound.com/
Where was that factory called biddle?
Newtown Road - roughly where the slip road to ASDA now is
On the B & M site
Opposite the multi story car park ,Newton Rd.
Good to see old memories
She's right it does seem strange that it wasn't memorialised until 40 years later...It was a major accident and tragedy. Looking at those photos it's amazing the loco was repaired and did another 30 years of service after that!
Very BAD Accident 😰
Wow, carnage. I’m glad that a memorial to those who lost their lives has been placed there. 🙏
This was caused by a lack of attention to detail especially by drivers.
86242 was one of the fleet based in Norwich, back when I was a driver at Crown Point TMD. I've only just looked up the history and it's amazing that it lasted so long in service.
When was this Loco withdrawn? Because I am sure I have seen it at Liverpool Lime St, back in the day. I have worked on The Railway for over 30 years.
what was the other 86 that was the lead engine on the train I forgot it now
@@stephensmith4480 - I think it was withdrawn around 2002 and I believe it suffered from a traction motor failure, however It may have been one of the few restored and made it to Bulgaria. Many of the 86/2 loco's had transformer issues with overheating, so the best ones, or the loco's that had transformer replacements were saved from the scrapheap. I remember during hot summers, when driving from the DBSO end, we would open the windows, wedge the cab & engine compartment doors open to allow air to blast through in an attempt to cool them down. They were real greenhouses on wheels on a hot day.
@@bridgerectifier7711 Many thanks for that information my friend. Yes I can appreciate the overheating problem. When you are combining high voltage, along with high amperage, the heat generated can be staggering. I`m not sure how cooling was achieved on large transformers of this type. some large transformers are Oil cooled, with fan assistance. The 86 was a great loco, even the 86/6 freight loco. I remember the last days of the 85s before the last of them were withdrawn, we still got the odd one working Car trains from Garston. Happy days.
Did know my dad ray king
I'm exhausted just watching!!
Too many slides have no captions
the question is how many you remember - get the old grey cells working :)
I'm not even from nuneaton, but I have been there recently and it's not a pleasant English Town anymore. This country has been destroyed. I'm only an 80s baby but I'm so pleased I'm not a youth today.
God bless these brave people .
Lovely church !
Slow
125mph is slow?
@@JimbobsTransportVideos yes when comparing to the might of France and Germany.
@@colinscotland2887- Roll on HS2!
@@johnwebster3224 HS2 should have been to Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen or Scotland should find it's own high speed railway service.
Where was this filmed as i would like to trainspot Here It lookes nice
Heroes 💕
R.I.P People
went to nuneaton town last week, hardly anyone around, tumble weed blowing down the street, people talking a language i dont understand, i suppose they call it progress....tut. tut.
Caused by driver missing a temporary speed restriction sign - it should have been illuminated but light had gone out. This crash led to the change in rules to using the Automatic Warning System for speed restrictions (rather than just signals) so drivers get an audible warning in the cab
And the inquest found a number of drivers had passed by previously without reporting the fault. As I say to people when training them (not rail related), don't assume someone else will do it. If you know it's not as it should be, then it's your responsibility to resolve the situation (notify / fix etc etc), but never walk on by. I have a number of examples I use and this is one of many accidents (sadly) were someone else would do it.
It was a train TO Glasgow, not from Glasgow. My late step-dad was driving over the bridge at the south end of the station as this happened. Tragic.
correct
You can’t expect tv news to get everything right, come on!
my dad was at work at the time at the station and some others that I know or did as some are long gone rip to them
There were trackworks and a speed limit was in force.but the oil-lamp illuminating the limit-sign had gone out and the train driver continued driving at normal line-speed, causing a derailment.
@@None-zc5vg true plus the crew in the the first loco did not know the road as well as should of done cant remember where 86242 brook down needing a tow and new crew that did not know about p way speed limit sorry about spellings
I was a school kid just up the road in Hinckley at the time, by 1978 I was a railway employee at Coalville. Years(around 2010) later I was on the platform at Nuneaton and got talking to one of the staff, he'd been the guard on one of the breakdown trains during the clear up and he pointed out marks in the brick work made by the wreckage.
I met Bill when i worked on the carparks at the George Eliot in 1996 at the Mary Ann Evans ward behind the maternity building very nice man will be missed by many RIP Bill Olner
For all those souls that were lost i am from bucks hill and am very familiar with the memorial and the property it resides on RIP
Keep up the good work mate
I wonder what year ? Great footage...
When Nuneaton was a vibrant place to go!
