BRITISH RAILWAYS IN THE 1980's
RUGBY STATION on 25th May 1988
Continuing with my archive of video recording between the years of 1986 to 2001 this clip is of Rugby taken on 25/05/1988. At a time where a class 87 could be witnessed on a Freightliner...The frequency of passing loco hauled express trains near the end of the video... 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.

One of the best liveries to have ever existed. I don't think there was any Loco that never suited the Intercity livery. Nice to see an early example of the INTERCITY Swallow livery without rap round black cab surrounds. Did love the earlier version of the Swallow livery.

What a wonderful video, thanks for sharing. I worked in Rugby (buses) about a decade later and how different this all looked. In some clips you can see between the buildings of the GEC factory and see nothing but fields. 10 years later a very different view. As a point of interest, I know exactly where I was on this day. It was my Dad's birthday and we'd gone to Calais for the day. The reason I mention this is that back then it was all very fashionable to moan about British trains and the media et al assuming all SNCF trains were akin to the TGV; they weren't. We went a few stops on SNCF on carriages that still had an outside 'balcony' at the end and likely were many decades old. Compare and contrast to BR of the day and I'd take ours any day.

I like how he solemnly says "running 10 - one zero - minutes late." He sounds just like a butler announcing to his boss that regrettably Lord Faversham will not be able to visit for sherry this evening.

That’s some serious acceleration at 9.40 from that 85. 10 mk2s . That’s about 400 tons.

We used to work 1S07 from Carlisle to Mossend (Inverness sleepers) with an 85 with 17 on back in the late 1970s to 1982 when I left Perth....The 85 had little trouble up Beattock and then rattled down the other side, they were a bit of a rough ride though....how I wish we could go back in time......Many thanks for watching Arthur and best wishes...Mark

@@spompeyI heard that about the 85s that they would ride bad. I never got to have a good look at one , they were gone before I started one the railways. The only ac electrics I am familiar with are the 91s . We had them regularly at Heaton Newcastle.

Didn't get any 85s there but a gem of mine is 31409, an early casualty of the 1991 purge of older 31s.

I`m loving all this fantastic videos - Thank you!!! @ 6:17 Can you remember what the name is on the side of 08909? I have looked in Andy Chard`s loco register book and 08909 never carried a name so I assume this was an unofficial name?? Kind Regards Kev

Was the class 87 rushing through on the Up Fast 87015 or 87016? It looks like 15 because of its shabby front.
