@13:56 BOWLED!

What a treat! thanks for posting... so much more pleasant than the glorified tramway of today... shame the timing for video recorders just cmae about 10 years too late to REALLY catch the variety to be had. @2:40 nice to see the CARTIC4's full of Escorts and @14:40 a 4 wheel LOWMAC - only 52 built and most scrapped with only a handful in departmental by then - a very rare bird! Good catch!

Can t beat an 87 with a full set of coaches, far better than the rubbish we have now

That is not Oban ?

Almost looks like mavis from Thomas And Friends

Sad to watch

This is a form of systematic vandalism.

It's whistle is definitely a let down after playing train conductor world where it's whistle is more akin to "GET OUT OF MY WAY!"

Nice to see The Clansman. I remember riding on this in the mid70s when going home to Manchester after holiday at Loch Ness I remember the Mark 2 carriages with the wooden interior My first time on an air conditioned train coach😊

Fabulous. What memories. Thanks

How come some of the 120 sets have 101 coaches as a centre coach I wonder?

Watching 37 048 shunting it's wagons and 08 704 tootling about was fascinating. A very watchable video, thank you.

The Werrington underpass north of Peterborough which takes intermodal and other freight from Felixstowe to the North was built in 2020-22 to in effect replace the March-Spalding Line; it feeds the trains onto the rest of the GN&GE Joint Line at Spalding that parallels the ECML to Doncaster. The Werrington underpass has cost £200 million we are told. Keeping the March-Spalding Line in place would have avoided that. It could have been mothballed and reopened. Instead it was demolished and land sold off so it cannbot be restored. It has cost the public sector (Network Rail paying) much more than retaining the line would have required.

The scenes at Spalding are fabulous. During the Flower Festival the whole place was packed with rakes of Mk1 coaches waiting to return home.

Some old wagons the 08 was pulling, look 1940s

I can almost smell this! A mixture of burnt diesel, brakes and jeyes fluid.

of all the rail abandonments in the UK this is one of the worst. March-Spalding-Firsby-Louth-Grimsby would be the key access to what is now the UK's biggest port. Just the March-Spalding portion pictured here requires massive reengineering at Peterborough to deal with the resulting bottleneck.

No buddliea and when the railway was cared for.

Excellent, Peterborough before the wires and the buddliea.

This is superb!❤

We live in north connel,was just reminiscing about the sound of the old class 37 pulling out of connel ferry,found this video.magical.made me smile.thankyou

Just needs Duchess of Hamilton and City of Birmingham to see on the mainline again WOW? what a combination ? Plus Mallard. Of course 😂.

Brilliant times.

3mins 48 seconds - my old mate Dave Mills cleaning the ground signal and thats me up the signal with my old can……. Good times and now in 2024 I’m still working on the S&T…..

Two stars. Thank you for filming that. PS. I want to go back to the past.

Before the inmates ran the asylum.

These ware amazing times. When the UK was the land of the people who lived there not hostile foreign mercenaries under keir starmer

I really hope one day mallard can return to operation...

Myson House car park. Venue for a lot of football amongst the spotters

I was on a train from Kings cross to Newcastle and the Mallard was the engine doing the work. That was in the 1950s. My Uncle was station master in Wooler and every Wednesday the coal train would arrive and me and my younger brother got a ride on the footplate in the steam engine, such excitement for 2 young boys.

Subscribed, im a 70s child which might explain, great footage.

Memories ❤ loved looking out window at the 2 engines on the way to skegness..

If only they could keep them going imagine the money they would make and what's a trip to take for a holiday to different towns Ive read about her in books but when I went to YRM and stood actually next to her I thought wow. She's beautiful I'm not into trains but even I know when I see beauty in a piece of engineering this is one of them moments

I love seeing Flying Scotsman and Mallard together

I was lucky enough to be in the VIP area to witness these silos falling. My dad oversaw the demolition of the whole site and he had the honour of pressing the detonation button in order to set off the explosion. I still miss seeing these and smelling the unique smell generated by the sugar process.

Great footage Roy, thank you for taking the time to share them with us. Very atmospheric too with the snow on the ground.

Fabulous video 👍

Just brilliant!!!

It's crazy as one of them could be my dad i'm seeing working, as he was a trackman back in the 80's..

Darn it makes me feel old watching this, as use to travel on them trains as an 80's child when going on holiday to Great Yarmouth..

Great footage Roy thanks for sharing that gentleman 👍

That brings back memories. When you could sit in the station buffet, with your binoculars and not have the signalling centre block your view!

A lovely stretch of line

Great days great footage 👍

BLOODY HELL THATS A BLAST FROM THE PAST, JOHN MENZIES PAPER SHOPS USE TO BE ONE IN DEWSBURY BUS STATION YEARS BACK

Right. I'm off to my shed to get on with my time machine. Anybody coming?

2 famous LNER Steamers Flying Scotsman and Mallard.

Top stuff👍👍👍

5:40 Clarkson and May GRAND TOUR stuff goings-on, im just waiting hor Hammond.😂
