Railways 1992, in Lancaster, Morecambe and Carnforth

Starting on "Castle Station" for loco-hauled services and 31s passing through I then take some lineside shots before showing the old trackbeds down to Lancaster Green Ayre Station and the site of Lancaster Shed 11E.
One of my favourite landmarks, with regards to the mainline, was Carlisle Bridge, crossing the River Lune. The line from Green Ayre to Morecambe is now partly the road bridge and a footpath where Scale Hall Station was situated just to the west of the bridge. Next to Morecambe Promenade Station where a 31 departs with its train for the Power Station at Heysham. Finally a clip at Carnforth with 31/37s in the yard. All in one day in February 1992

Morecambes anti rail town wanted the existing station moved as far away as possible. Today its much smaller than in 1992.

They might as well have closed the whole branch down!

Thanks for your continued support; I'm just so please I kept the original tapes. I've acquired a new VHS player so they've copied quite well, no steady shot 30 yrs ago! I always watch all your clips. It's much busier in England as there's little freight in S/Wales. Keep safe and enjoy your days out for all of us watching

Great video. Someone put EWS on 31422 but surely that can't be the company as in 1992 they didn't exist? 🤔
