The last pic of 86211 is a sad one to end on, as the driver of this loco, lost his life in that collision..

Superb video Barry.

I remember all this like it was yesterday, everyone had a job, there was such an abundance of shops in all the towns, you could get anything you needed. Although grimy through industry, everything was clean as a whistle.People were proud then. It's so tragic to see it in its steady decline and filth. Thank you for posting this film.

Now thats the city I grew up in a vibrant friendly place. Take a look a look at some of the videos of stoke today and see how multi cultural policies have improved it.

An excellent compilation of Clayton road, Newcastle, Hanchurch end of Trentham estate motorway bridge, Hanley etc as I remembered it as being back in the late 60's and early 70's. Now I live 300 miles away having left in the 80's and the Potteries is but a memory of growing up. Thanks for rekindling the memories. 👍

It's not often photos can make me feel physically sick !

Stream engine on electric track? Wow

Blue peter! :3

Times have changed! For the worse!!

Where do you start!!!

Wow, normal people.

Great footage i was on that train and the futher we got up the bank the louder it got great loco

Some of the dates must be slightly wrong, the green 47s were painted in 1985 (for GWR150) and 47529 was on the scrap line in early 1987…

Lovely noise.❤

I was there too exelent footage

Lovely. Still a lot of billowing steam around the frond end and it looks and sounds as though a drain cock is stuck open.

BLOCKING CHANNEL. WHY IS THIS TRAIN GARBAGE STILL SHOWING UP?! PLEASE MAKE IT STOP!!

Great stuff.Thank you for the footage

Great video, thanks for sharing it 👍 Where is the field at the end of the video, I'm trying to work out where the bungalows that are under construction are?

Clayton Road ! Wow !

Would it be trespassing to film there?

Must have been 1967 or later, the red VW van on the bridge is a T2, these were introduced in 1967. Nice to see PMT Atlantean double deck buses, new in 1959- 61 105 examples, much better than the ADL hybrids that PMT has now. Great to see the bustling market in Newcastle,all the way from the guildhall to the Grovesnor sunken roundabout. The whole of S O T is like many areas a shadow of what it was. The pits closed, the Michelin, Shelton bar steel works, the ceramic industry has disappeared, sad times. Thanks for very happy childhood memories.

Great shot! I saw her at Henley in Arden.

My farther was a stoke driver and used to take me to the round house when he fetched his wages. Also remember riding on a tank engine in the yard. Also Blaster Bayes knocking down the coaling stage.

Are you actually aloud to be there because im looking for spots to film

I was on that train amazing run and great footage

When England was still England. Pretty much Every single car you see made in England . No litter , everyone smartly dressed , my how things have changed for the worse .

Brilliant footage, thanks Barry.👍👍

The Flag lane chimney 😁

I was on this very train when you were filming it

Stoke-on-Trent was a descent place at one time. Look at it now, a bloody great dump 😞

It looked nice back then. Everything did.

Look how lack of diversity was so pleasant

Great shot! I saw her at Manchester Vic.

Nice 3-cyclinder beat!

Only met him briefly . My gliding and power flying started on 1967 at Meir Aerodrome Stoke-on-Trent and my subsequent career took me to many engineering facilities and airfields over 50 years. Retired 6 years now. So many good people in so many places . Sad to hear about his passing . And sadly so many companies and airfields gone forever. I know life is always changing but at least I've been with my "base club and airfield" Southend for 43 years. I lived in Hazel Grove 1973 to 1976 before moving to Bristol .

Remember the airshowe at Woodford in the 1970's. Did some flying there including a bn2 islander. Woodford long gone. Just a museum in the old Hawker Siddeley airfield fire shed. I'm still flying and gliding after 56 years. So many UK airfields gone forever and still going. John. FAI/BGA 51417.

Everyone is thin!

i had the pleasure to visit crewe works twice in the 1980s once in 1984 and 1986 i was only 12 the 1st time i went with my late father but they was the best exiting days ever! and a great video 🥰😘🤩

It's Trentham station

Back then it looked like the kind of place you’d want to pull off the motorway to visit and spend some time.

Isn’t this where Henry was sent after the Flying Kipper crash?

Brilliant, need to play this on the hifi with the sound turned up. 🔊

Not a plastic bottle or can in sight....... Litter.

Great days

Great shot! I saw her at Tyseley.

Great shot! I saw her at Chester.

Wow. The motorway looks so clean. I remember it being built. Such a shame Stoke is such a shit hole now.

Brilliant Video Barry Brand New Subscriber here too 👏
