Cor, Just look at that filth blasting into the atmosphere of Rose-an-Grouse from those diesel engines and there are those who want to keep the things going. The sooner the UK gets an all electric rail system the better. Great to see old St Erth Station though.
Anyone know which locomotive and what color the Mk1 sleeper coaches were on the Night Riveria back during the period of the early 1960s? Class 47 and maroon??? I haven't a clue.... but I am modeling late BR steam and early BR diesels....
yes this one operated by First great western from London Paddington to Penzance just like the one shown adn the over one is operated by First Scotrail between Lodnon Euston to Glasgow and Edinburgh an another one from Euston to Ft.William, Inverness and Aberdeen
Still watch this one, still love it too! FIVE STARS!
Superb sounding 47 dragging it's silent mate. Why I love driving 47s so much, to this day.
I keep coming back to watch this. I absolutely love it.
Back when the Railways worked under Inter-City. Listen to those Type 4's growl! Priceless vid m8!
