Great vid alex ta for sharing, some lovely 50s there, always have a soft spot for the 56 though, nice shot of the High speed stuff, and a whizzo, good ole champ....and that railcar looked quaint, the 180 looked nice too....think green suits em, nice evocative wrap though, so many memories on that two car body,. HST looked nice too in its own greeny...final shot awesome...
1:11 chittern Railways just retired the last 121 earlier this year! 1:20 why do I find this livery odd? 2:33 was Tornado the only locmotive at this event that wasn't considered to be a "Western Region" locmotive? 2:55 nice to see a class 43 and class 47 repainted into Intercity swallow livery and still used in normal service! 3:50 nice to see a steamer moving here! Nice to see two trains with special liveries for this occasion! I'm surprised only part of the 180 was in the new livery! 7:57 nice to see that there! 8:42 that picture is an instant classic! City of Truro should've been here!
Ooooofh, 41001 (Aka Project Miller), was sorted out at Leeds Nevile Hill, with quite some input from East Midlands Trains, and quite often found showcasing a HST set from EMT..... would have been nice to have that Paxman Valenta cranked up, screaming it's head off :) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_41_(HST)
All of the locos here are in use. Some of them are preserved on heritage railways, some of them are in use still with GWR and some of them are in use with other Train Operating Companies.
IIRC, The Railmotor is still in use at Didcot, 43002 Is In The NRM 43185 Is Still In Use 43093 Is Still In Use The 50s,47's & 37 Are also all still in mainline operation The 180s are with Grand Central All The Steam Locos there are in operation on preserved Railways The Older Diesels (35s,42s,52s) also all working on heratige lines The Class 14 has vanished No Idea what happened to the 121s 66799 Is in mainline operation As are the GWR 57s The 800 is in use awell and the 08 is alive and well at Laira! So they've done well really!
Amazing locomotives!
Now that's an open house! What a lineup and collection. And marvelous, imaginative paint schemes, too!
Excellent open day and wow that unveiled new train is superb
WOW! I love the Class 57, Class 43 HST & Class 41 Prototype HST my ultimate fan Nice video Can't wait to visit there
Thank you, but the depot has been closed and demolished now.
@@AlexMetroman Why?
To make way for Old Oak Common station for High Speed Two.
What a special day this must have been!
