Well that was entertaining, nice one. Cracking horn on the 40. Was impressed the speed that 90 went through p5, think the p&c needs lifting. Bet that spilt his tea 😂😂👍😎😎👍👍👍
Nicely filmed. Good to see D213 out and about. Saw her today from my tutor classroom at Shrewsbury College with a rake of mark ones in tow - looked immaculate. Cheers and keep up the great work - Alex.
What a genuine surprise it was for me, to see this old girl out and about yesterday! I knew LSL were going to do a test run, but I thought it was just going to be one of their 47s or 37s. So I was thrilled to see 40013 at Chester station, my all time favourite BR diesel locomotive class. The 40s are a rarity on the mainline nowadays, because there's only handful of them left. With a new coat of paint and the added full yellow ends, it's obvious the loco has recently gone through a winter maintenance job.
Good video watching from Australia ...Loco D213 is it the norm for those locos to have 8 axles all up I always thought 3 each end was enough to carry the weight.

Great video. Always plenty going on at Crewe 👍
Hiya, more great catches there, nice to see some heritage stuff still going strong...
Fantastic as always Andrew.
Glad you enjoyed it - Cheers Andrew 👍
I had no idea you were there! I was there as well. Lovely sound she made plus the pair of 37s later on
I missed the 37’s - See what they’re up to tomorrow and catch them on the way back to Derby. The 40 did indeed sound great! Catch up soon 👍
Great video👍
Thanks very much 👍
great video great variety love whistlers
Great video. Love 40s. Not been to Crewe for a few years. The vegitation and platform edges look like they need a good tidy up
Thanks! It does need a good tidy up in places however I can cope with it when there’s a 40 about! 🙏👌
The Northern Belle returns.
Watched passing through Marston Green on Friday with the Coventry to Chester round trip special.Classy train
Erm northern belle is part of west coast rail company not locomotive services limited. The statesman is part of the Crewe based.
@@wattstransportenthusiast621 if you say so,not too bothered about who owns what,just saying nice to see.
Great video mate nice seeing 40 active
Thanks a lot! Good to see it on the move 👍
Great video.
For next video idea maybe aerial of Bounds Green, Hornsey depot or ferme park sidings
Sounds good! I’ll see what is possible when I’m next in the area 👍
Seen the Class 40 in Chester
Looked and Sounded fantastic
Nice footage of Crewe 👍
Nice one Arthur - Look forward to having a look at your footage from Chester. 👍
@@trainsplanes will but it together with the rail tour on Wednesday pal
Good video and some good captures. The 40 looks like it’s got Leaking Turbo seals.
Thanks Paul.. No doubt the LSL team will be going over it with a fine tooth comb before it’s due out again on Weds. 👍
Clean

Wait is that D213 Andania? Her front ends look really different
Yes - All yellow nose ends for 2023.. 👍
Full yellow ends
Nice footage bro. Was that for testing
Thanks - Yes, a test run in advance of it heading the Welsh Marches on Weds.
Why didn't the 40 get a green rather than the right to pass double whites?
I can’t remember seeing a green on that signal.. Its almost always double whites.
@@trainsplanes NIce vid - Saw a 40 at the East Lancs Railway Heritage line - Noisy little buggers aren't they?? :)
It went into the Down Refuge, you can't get a full aspect into there only a subsidiary signal. Hth.
@@Boating_David IT does thank you... :)
