Excellent stuff Phill I caught the 37s that day tho missed the HST with with chasing the 37s back too Liverpool. Caught the 33 and 37 same time on Winwick Junction :) ..... Liked
Cheers mate, they only have the one 125 set, though they have 3 power cars and just rotate them as required. I had a look in the mark 2 carriages when the 37s stopped and it is still a fairly complete intercity interior complete with "swallow" motif on the internal doors.
Thanks mate, I can remember when 31s were hauling most services around this area and instead I spent most of my time looking at shiny new units... Oh to wind the clock back.
This is very unlike Wigan! This is one hell of a "proper traction" day. How long did it take for the 37's to re-appear after they had gone towards Southport ? Where did they head off to next ?
The 31 was brilliant stuff. Don't like parked or snail pace trains much. I agree its nice to see stuff like the 37's but I still want to see them puffing and splurting.
Never disappoint mate. Top stuff. The Tractors came through Wigan after i left with the 1420 to Man Vic. Were totally annoyed

Cheers mate, the HST and the 31 were complete surprises we all found out shortly before as some gen filtered through.

Cheers mate, it happens. They were knocking around today, and was at Salford waiting and they send them via springs and Chat Moss into Manchester...
Great stuff. Thanks for that. Made my day!
Brilliant video, love the 33029 :)

Brilliant Footage Phil,Trevor.'''
I got the 37s the next day making quite a bit of noise :D I admit I prefer them making a racket too.
Cheers Kev

Like to try it there myself. Maybe a bit later in the year.''
Excellent day indeed. I would love to see the 43 banana train there.
That usually comes through every 2 weeks on a Tuesday morning going north around twenty past eight, it returns southbound the next day before lunch :)
