BRITISH RAILWAYS IN THE 1980's
Bournemouth Station on 9th August 1988
Continuing with my archive of video recording between the years of 1986 to 2001 this clip is of Bournemouth taken on 09/08/1988. The London to Weymouth services at this time were now mainly in the hands of a pair of class 73s. This I believe was to reduce overheating while the class were working under Diesel power. The oil train in the video is the Hamworthy Oil train. I hope the video takes you back to this period with fond memories. Feel free to comment, good or bad, all comments are read and greatly appreciated, but it is not always possible to answer each individually. Sit back and enjoy this latest production remembering all those now long gone Locomotive classes and other types of traction. Many thanks for all subscriptions and all of those viewers who have kindly shown an interest in my material.

Another fantastic video. Thank you for sharing. So familiar this location having lived in Weymouth then. 1985 I believe the electrification to Weymouth but have so many memories of the 33/1’s push pulling. Thanks again.

Wonderful video, great memories of Bournemouth station wth the 4 reps & 4 TC units being uncoupled & class 33 1 s being attached. Unusual to see trains leaving Bournemouth via the up line under the arched bridge. Never seen that happen before. 👍👍🇦🇺

😄 Great video. Brings back so many memories of travelling between Waterloo and Weymouth in the 1980s and so often having to change at Bournemouth, which is a great station, especially seeing trains coming around the curve into Platform 3.

Why did you change ? usually they put on a 33 to weymouth and removed it on the way back. the train changed but I didnt ? I think sometime you had to move forward if they shortened the train. 33 pull to weymouth and then push back to bournemouth. 😀

The 73s worked Waterloo - Bournemouth on supposedly Weymouth through trains that actually connected with trains starting from Bournemouth since not enough 442s were in service yet, and also on Poole semi-fasts. Two locis would theoretically have as much power as a REP and have a better chance of keeping to schedule

Is the smoke in the later part of the video, caused by something shorting on the live third rail? Seems there's enough litter on the track bed to cause problems...

Either a 415 or an EPB. They often came out of London to assist in the peak season and weren't strictly confined to suburban duties.

why 73 not 33 where did the 33's go? Hamworthy had a signal box when I used to get on there LOL As the years went by I watched slowly rot away till it was no more. I see the Poole harbour, Hamworthy branch line is getting ripped up now or has been already.
