    It's always pleasing to see a class 40 loco on the main line. Super video footage here Allan. Cheers - Allan. πŸ™‚
  • The last class 40 l saw on the main line was in December 1984 - at Peterborough heading south with a freight liner !! Must have been heading to King's Cross freightiner depot ? Must have been one of the last as it closed around about that time!

    Hi Alan - I haven't been to the Junction since 2014 - must try to do a repeat visit this year. We've rather lost touch over the past year or so - hope you're keeping well - best wishes.
  • The only thing that has changed is the rolling stock from my only visit here in 1979. On that day, we came in behind a Class 47 with MK 1 stock, went to Llandudno for the day and came back the next day behind a CL24 (24081 still have the photo) and waiting for the conncection to Holyhead saw a railtour pulled by 2 x Class 20's. Amazing stuff at the time, and now just a memory, albeit with photos! Love the video and the sound of the 37 is magic. Hopefully back in the UK in 18 months to chase trains again.
  • Hello Alan, Nice captures from sunny Wales. The 40 looking and sounding well. Regards, John

    Amazing video! Stunning sound and lovely shots. Keep it up!
  • Great stuff Alan. I've been missing your great videos since you moved to Angelsey, I'm sure you've missed the steam too. No steam today, but next best thing? I got the loco change at Chester.
  • Great to see an immaculate 40 on the main line. The last time I was behind a 40 on the main line was in the 80's, on the Settle Carlisle when it was under threat of closure.
