Good times indeed, Godfrey Road sidings, variety of locos etc etc - nice recording Brian 👍👍- Ian
Driver of 37146 was enthusiastic on the throttle. Particularly interesting 37903 with short wheelbase ballast hoppers with Shark brakevan.
Rare glimpse of 37903. 😀👍The Shark is a Plough van, we used them for levelling the ballast once we had gone through dropping the stone, lower the Plough , then run back. Great job on a Sunny morning. Also, the Steel coils were still steaming when they passed through Shrewsbury, Probably 70miles further up the line.
Great days back then, the weather is still the same lol.
😂👍
Great memories of newport before sheds took over. When ever i visited there or cardiff the weather never changed it rained😂
Always an enjoyable re--watch !!👍👍👍-Ian
A very belated thanks Ian
Great video 😊 love seeing the 37s grumble into action 🚂
Thanks Gill
Interesting to see the hot steel coils steaming in the rain.
Great production David, this is how I will always remember Newport High Street...it's so different now...Regards...Bob
Robert Masterman Hi Rob where did you get David from,but thanks for your comments ......regards Brian
Oooops!...sorry Brian, another senior moment I'm afraid!
Robert Masterman 😀😀😀😀
Lovely to see Newport how it used to be 😂 So different now
Fresh out of the oven, the Steel behind 37283. Have seen them steaming as they passed through Shrewsbury. The Scottish 37/4 were a long way from home lol. Shame it's all gone now,, nothing but boring 66s 🙄
Thanks Ian
@@BrianTuckerRailvideos your very welcome. Thanks to you taking the time to film and upload. We will be able to keep watching for many more years. Memories fade, but a vid is a great nudge. Thank you again. 😀👍
Looks like a busy day there Brian. Not that long ago really.
Anthony Holloway non stop at the time Tony......cheers mate
Regrettably, the shock hits when one returns and sees the desertion. Here in the USA we had on my railroad lots of stations, junctions, yards etc. that were similarly busy. They are now closed. I feel badly about what the changes in service did to the railroad not for what survives but for what was lost. For example a roundhouse near to where I reside is now a dance club named Pufferbellies. Cute but not railroading.
What was the mixed rake of four coaches at the end ? With the res parcel coach, NSE and RR
Regional Railways, I think 🤔
