Anbrico
/ Felixjaz |
The
80s are back... And they're DREADFUL! ... (and so are the
90s)
It's like the 80s never went away - Preston the way it used to be,
with 87s, 86s, 85s, 47 galore and even a pair f 25s in their final
days. For the DMU fans, 104s and 108s are in plentiful supply, as
are 101s and some almost new 142s.
As we move into the 90s, we see the move to Intercity livery, with
class 31s on Regional Railways services and much more.
The DVD is rounded off with a short selection of footage from the
new millennium, bringing us right up-to date.
This is an essential nostalgia trip for all of us who had an
interest in Preston Station, and railways in general over the last
two decades.

filmed between October 2000 and July 2002 and features archive
footage of traffic through Preston before major re-organisations
abolished regular loco-hauled passenger and mail trains and the
variety of locos using the station.

seventy traffic movements, including twenty-three different class

from 86s to 47s you will hear some lovely sound effects from
departing 47s!

September 2004. With over seventy traffic movements, and a
magnificent array of loco hauled trains it features the end of XC

Does
pretty much what it says on the tin (OK, box). |
| Memories
of Lancashire Steam |
|
This
DVD consists of cine film taken by three railwaymen, often from
the footplate, in the grimy final few years of steam.
At present, this
DVD isn't available to the public, but I hope to be able to offer
it for sale here in the future, with all proceeds going to
charity. |
