I wish they’d bring back growlers and regular coaches again on everyday train routes get fed up of boring diesel and electric multiple units to give todays trains their old sixties name.

Awesome video as usual, these were two great tours and I was lucky enough to see both.. which doesn't happen very often! 😆 44871 put on a nice show, she wasn't too great when I saw her but I enjoyed seeing her nonetheless - the 47 was more than likely the highlight of that tour for me, thanks to the driver with all the tones he did! 😅 I believe I spoke to you while the 60/57 tour was in Chester, I was wearing a black and white coat, and I was at the end of the platform in that video of the 60 running light past Chester. 👍 Again, amazing video - I really enjoyed it!!

In the late 1980’s I used to travel on this Bidson Line each way once a week for 5 years to college in Liverpool, so it was nice to see what we passed each time. I remember seeing diesel shunters working here.
@arthurgrowler5749 9 күн бұрын
If you look on the video, when the shunter leaves the yard into the steel works there’s the old shunters shed. I do remember yellow diesel shunters parked up outside but never seen them move. I only remember Allerton based shunters doing the shunting for steel and wood into the paper mill. Used to be about 3
@Sam_Green____4114 9 күн бұрын
Why does the train run ? Does the steel go there to be finished ? Or to be turned into an end product ? Is the shunter an ex BR O8 ?
@arthurgrowler5749 9 күн бұрын
08615 is ex BR at some part of its life. Wabtec supply the shunters for the steel works. Steel comes up in coils, finished off at shotton. Painted & galvanised products I believe!
@MrDavidfball 9 күн бұрын
i think its for distribution, seems ironic to me that steel coil is being delivered to a place that used to make steel, this needs to stop we need steel production and the push to net zero is making the likes of china the world leaders in steel production at the cost to the west
