Preston to Blackpool North: loco-hauled trains in the 1990s - Part 3
Переглядів 4,2 тис.6 років тому
This sequence of railway videos I made in the 1990s were an attempt to record something of the final decade of locomotive-hauled rosters between Preston and Blackpool North Stations, mainly featuring classes 31 and 37. There are also a few DMUs of that time, a brief period of visits by HST125s and the last tanker train workings from ICI Thornton.

Hi Ashton this is great footage I was wondering if I could please ask to use a little for my documentary on the Fleetwood to Knott End Ferry? Video is on my channel about the project if you want to know more its called End to End. I've been working with the Fleetwood Museum and the current crew of the Ferry to make it. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers Anton :)
Hi Anton - Thank you for your comment about my video. Sorry for the delay in replying but I've had trouble getting in to my account. You are welcome to use whatever scenes you want - can you take it direct from the UA-cam video or not? John Green (aka Mr Ashton Moss)
@mr.ashtonmoss6013 Hey Ashton so sorry we've finished the edit but thank you 😀 We are doing local screenings in Knott-End and Fleetwood soon. Will message on here if you want to come
It still looks the same😂😂😂😂
Loving these video's. Loco hauled trains are the best, not like modern ones which resemble trams with no character. Still got part 3 to watch.
5.22 nightmare induciung lol. the pleasure beach was great in the 80,s so many good rides.
Some of these rides can be downloaded & ridden for nostalgia on the game 'planet coaster' PS5....(all dlc needs downloading too)....the ghost-train, river caves,Alice in wonderland, big dipper, gold mine even the log flume is there...... arthurperno 2 has videos on youtube and is same name on the game to subscribe to...he's done a great job!!!
Ahh the maze I got lost in it once love the video brings back happy memories
The Tidal Wave/Pirate Ship ride featured i n the TV series "COASTING" - They held a bizarre funeral ceremony on it !
Oo - I don't remember the steam train ride - was that on the same site where the Tom Sawyer ride used to be ?
So many memories 💛 My family must've visited Blackpool at least twice a year when I was a kid 🇬🇧
Wow that takes me back... I worked on the Logflume for the season in 1974,we all used to ride it(5 at a time) first thing every day to check it out....the 'logs' wouldn't get any closer than what you saw here(although a couple of times they did) the 'magic eye' at the bottom of the ramp would cut out the belts to avoid a collision) and they would all stop..... it was fun to go out and rescue those at the top of the ramp😂 thanks for the upload....
Action of all types, very good.
Thankyou
Loved it way back then.
I think there’s been some extremely questionable decisions since the 90s
Great film capturing lots of my memories. The Monorail and Log Flume should never have gone. Great that we get to "ride" them.
Brilliant, the best modern period of this line👍
Thanks really enjoyed watching this... What a fantastic time to see these classics
I’ve watched this many times, super video 👍
It even had a total load!
None of us probably appreciated then, how relatively uninteresting railways were to become with the swathes of modern multiple units
Went on 1982 and 1983 amazing.
Am I imagining this but did Birmingham RCW Type 3 work some of theme trains for a while?
Lovely sounding Tractor . 👍👍😎
I’m surprised how varied the traction is towards the early 2000s. I’m a bit gutted I wasn’t born a few years earlier so I could see all this instead of growing up with nothing but EMU and DMUs.
0.18 a arrhghhh 😱😱😱 I use to run up to that hoping I was tall for the big one 😭😭😭 great memories and that laughing man 😱
Superb
Sad to see how much has changed and been lost .
They still have the flume drop hill but has now become part of the infusion ride i May never got my chance as I was to young and still in school the year it closed could never save up enough money to come then would had love to have seen it oh well.
Why not just get an unlimited all year round pass yes it's for locals apparently but I think all you need is friends or relations here in the sh💩t hole sorry I should have said town
Very interesting and rare footage - thanks for sharing.
Thank you for your reply Marko.
Great footage
Sadly some idiots who own the PB decided to remove it some years ago for ICON or Infusion to take it's place, could have removed the Grand Prix or Turnpike as it might have been sometimes known as and put Ikon/Infusion there instead......all unique rides are being removed for no good reason
Thank you for posting this. Brought back some great memories.
Thank you for your comment Karl - glad it brought back memories for you.
Miss this ride soooo much was one of my favourites
Love this, it was such a magical time to visit in the 90s
It was indeed! Thank you for your comment.
The log flume , I miss it still , the park was better then for sure
Fantastic footage sir 👍 what year did you film the class 50's?
Hi Carne - thank you for your comment. I didn't make a note of the tour date at the time but I've traced it to 11th April 1992 - it was the 'Carlisle Fifty Farewell' tour.
Laughing man is now by avalanche (bob slay) and it’s 20p per laughing fit
Its all £££££ there nowadays. £50 to gain entry & go on the rides😢Get fooked.
Another person who misses this classic ride!!
Well that was really stupid to remove such a good Ride for a shitty Ride from somewhere else
some of the best times back then, i loved the log flumes and really wish they'd kept them going. Great footage ny the way.... 👍👍
Thank you for your comment Gary - yes I agree about the log flume.
Really interesting footage, thanks 👌
Thank you for your comment.
Should never have got rid ..lovely memories as a little girl
I do remember the regional railways coaches and class 31 sets , some went to Liverpool and some Manchester. The 37s went to North Wales a lot. Absolutely filthy, fantastic. You could still smell the exhaust 10 minutes after the train passed😀 Thanks for sharing 👌
Thank you for your comment.
Great to see again 👍
Thank you for your comment.
What wonderful memories for your family. I remember first riding this in the late 70s as a youngster thinking it was the most hardcore ride ever. Blackpool was amazing then but I haven't been in years from what I've seen its changed a lot but that's natural I guess.
Thank you for your comment Gareth - if you have not already seen my other Pleasure Beach video with more memories of family visits, here is the link ua-cam.com/video/ClZeR95JHFc/v-deo.html
You should go visit it these days.... Great day out. I recently went to Flamingo land near Scarborough.... Rubbish.... Pleasure beach so much better!!
That Pacer 3:25 broken down? ☺
Yes
Happy memories. Shame we lost the monorail. It gave a lovely tour of the park.
Hi Jimarna - thank you for your comment.
