    Good bit of variety there Mike. Love the roar of the 91s when they power up just before setting off. Strange move that Grand Central Adelante crossing over from Down to Up platform lines when they run to Bradford or Sunderland.

    A great chocolate box selection - excellent. I know a long lens compresses the perspective on some of these shots but there is some decidedly wonky track work on a few of those crossovers!

    Some good stuff in this video Mike, and I did enjoy the cameo appearance of the two 56's in the distance...love the noise the 91's make when they are about to set off.....

Been to (what was the rail works) just before Christmas, delivering air filters to Seimans, but where I was getting unloaded I didn't see a single loco....

      I did like visiting Donny works on a Sunday afternoon in the days when the class 50 were on the works, and the building of the class 56.
      Yes finger crossed we have got to the bottom of Dolly heath problems which has taken over a month, so thanks Nige for mentioning Dolly.
      You keep safe until next time. Mike.
