Great video. This must be the cleanest 31 I've seen. At 1.47 Those wagon are a bit overgrown.

Agreed, even a decent tarpaulin is better than left to deteriorated in the open air.

Blimey! Not a lot left of that gronk at 1.18! The 73 could do with a bit of a spruce up too!

Having driven a Class 31 I kind of know what lever does what but I was only limited to 25mph
@Wacko20024 жыл бұрын
Paul Osborne 25mph is the limit on the Dean Forest Railway so we're not supposed to exceed that (the steam locos do because they don't have a speedometer)

awh right. yeah that's very true :P. only thing is health and safety is ridiculous and he does freight work, such as taking coils, tankers and coal to various places.

A ride about as slow as when they were used with Mk1 coaches on Leicester to Norwich services. Truly a line that time forgot. Can a 31 actually manage 90 mph?

1:10 - Driver appears to have green to proceed, before road barriers have started dropping. Erm, is this standard signalling practice?
@Wacko20024 жыл бұрын
nlo114 yes it is. That is just the way our barriers work. We are allowed to proceed at a white or green light.
