    I was 14 then and could well've been there, 1975-1982 were my spotting years, oh how I wish I could go back...............

    I was at that Derby open day. I saw those Deltics at Doncaster work around that time too.

    I'm pretty sure I was at this open day at Derby, being 14 at the time. I keep scrutinising it carefully to see if I'm on it, but no luck yet. The plethora of parkas, football kit bags, and long hair certainly takes me back.

    I think I'd have died and gone to heaven with all that traction on display... now that's what you call an open day . I think you've out done yourself with this one Trevor ... enjoyed..Andy

    Wonderful! BR Blue era open days were awesome! ....The health and safety bods would have a coronary if people went within 10ft of a loco these days.
    Sadly those old times, (responsibility and common sense), have passed by and people are kept behind safety barriers to look through their phones at things. At least kids will be able to watch this video on their phones ....Happy Days Trevor!

      Things a lot tougher now than it was then Stu.Different rules at open days now and different engines as well....Unfortunately will never get these times back.....Cheers...Trevor.''

    Another superb look back in time. Would love to what the health and safety lot woul have to say about such adventures ha.
    Kids loved it by the looks.
    Really big site. Surprised to see a Deltic? Did you ever get to Tinsley? That looked impressive form road bridge.
    Well done 😀👍

      @TrevorLedgeway  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Great to go around the works in them days.Yes we were stood on a banking to film this at Tinsley and my son got most of the numbers what we could see.Deltic was a clip at Donny which was at the end of film i had in the camera.'''More of Donny on my channel if you want to search for it.....Trevor.''

      Exactly what I was going to say as I went to Doncaster open day on 17/6/78 and Derby open day in early August 1978....even had a relief service from Birmingham N St to Derby hauled by 37106 that day and got to view a couple of the SSO services at Derby behind a pair of 25s and a Open Day Special behind a pair of 31s... saw 832,7076 and the other hymek and a Clayton on the Derby-Stoke line on the return to Crewe.....quite a day for a 12 year old at the time.... great footage from the rail blue era with 45067, first class 45 to be withdrawn and 55020 Nimbus at Doncaster also never to run again along with 55001 St Paddy, both just empty shells with their engines removed, I remember running through number 1 and being amazed at the emptiness of the inside.... at least they both had their nameplates still in situ..... thanks for the memories
