Class 47 Action retrospective memories 1990 - 1999

A composite video showing the remarkable Class 47 in action on its daily duties between 1990 to 1999 and complete with stereo soundtrack.
Plenty of thrash !
Locations and loco identification (where known) is imbedded in each track. Produced long before the advent of HD but worth a nostalgic look back at.
Please enjoy and comment by all means
thanks.

Always admired the 47's. Great design. Powerful, reliable work horses. Jacks of all trades, and still in active service. Around 30 years old around the time of these valuable films, and the undisputed kings of clag, bless em'.

A fantastic montage of these beautiful machines and I liked the very poignant ending.

Great video. Especially enjoyed the final scenes with the Network South East 47/7's still with Scottish names, I bet they confused a few normals.

Great video but why is a class 50 pulling away in the sound at the beginning

Hi Allan - I have what you might consider a slightly left-field request. 🙂 I'm an amateur musician and have an album coming out on a small subscription label later in the year. One of the tracks is called 'Class 47' and is a tune inspired by my memories of the trains I used in the 80s and often saw running along the tracks at the top of our school field. I really want to do a video for the song - it'd be so evocative. Your video here would be
