Great video. Always loads going on back in the day. It still has its moments but freight has dwindled over time. Give it a few years then the wires will be up and changed for good. Nice to see the Iron ore trains. I remember them being 3x37s😊 Usually 37299-308 allocated to Landore.
Very nice video, the railway as I remember it. Glad to see that you made the wise investment in a tripod back then, improves the video quality immensely!
Wat a belting watch again! I loved coming here in 95 just wish i'd recorded rather than taking pics now! Bit of a rarity at 20:45 a bird driver on heavy freight! Watever next lol :)
Thanks for this trip down memory lane ☺️ I remember the EWS stabling yard at Newport. They got rid of it when they built platform four
Good views of the Parcels Bay at Newport.
Gone now of course but we still call the access point there “Red Star” which is pretty cool
So much has changed since this footage was taken Mike...more excellent clips of the period..another very enjoyable watch...Bob
Brilliant archive footage Mike. Those were the days of plenty of diesel action C&A
Great stuff, them 2x37's on MGR off the valleys were loaded more than a bandits rifle.
Just so please, being retired, I have the time to " be out there"
Nice one Mike, can't get enough of those tractors
This is some of the best footage around!!! Very impressive and especially for it's age.
I'm still looking through my old VHS tapes. The problem is keeping my VHS playing in working order! Thanks for your interest
I still have 100s of hours to edit ( some on old vhs !); so now winter is approaching expect more soon.
Mike off to Pontypool today
get it done then.
Bit of history there mike ..cant believe it was 20 years ago!!!!!
Great video.
