This Video was shot on standard Video 8 on a dull overcast day in September 1988, it shows class 56 & 58's on merry go round trains with class 20, 37 and 47's on other freight at Shirebrook, Creswell, Chesterfield and Clay Cross.

Fantastic 👍🏻 Many a happy day travelling from Manchester on my Honda CB 250 super dream to Shirebrook watching the trains back in the late 70s 80s then called at Barrow Hill and Tinsley on the way home lol 😆

also in the days where a rail enthusiast can stand so many yards away from a school playground with a video camera, videoing his beloved railways without a visit from several police cars and officers wanting to know what he was doing............ahhhhhh and its so much better in 2019...................!

Brilliant footage thanks! So impressed you got footage of a freight setting into the exchange loop at Chesterfield ready to set back into the spur over the by-pass into Bryan Donkins and British Cylinders works.

wonderful footage. brings back some great memories for me seeing MGR traffic working through Toton. interesting to see how Chesterfield has changed too.

Absolutely cracking footage, thanks for sharing. It's good that you've kept the camera rolling to capture the entire train too. I found myself counting the HAAs to how many were made up to the full 36 sets! Thumbs-up.

Outstanding, some nice freight from when the railway was still interesting. What a shame we didn't have digital cameras back then.

Outstanding, a real interesting railway with some great freight. If only we had digital cameras back then.

Amazing, so local to me, they sound so much better than 66s.

That was epic, what a great trip down memory lane. Makes you realise how sterile the railways are now, all the freight in my neck of the woods, and theirs not much of it, has a 66 on it.

The 20s were going down the now lifted goods line across the main road.

What's the building at 7:45 and 11:08? I know it's now been demolished but remember it laying abandoned during my childhood.

I think it's the old Midland Railway Goods Depot

Cheers that's the first satisfactory answer I've had to the question in twenty years! Seems so obvious now, folks told me it was a rail station but I knew that wasn't quite right.
