A class 47 cab ride hauling a Branch Line Society rail tour around freight lines in the Manchester area. Bredbury stone sidings to Stockport via Phillip's Park and Denton. 1992
Unbelievable to compare then and now: the amount of litter then, and how stations have smartened up so much (not Ardwick haha). No Platform 0 at Stockport yet!
The main commentary is almost certainly from Walter Wood, Traction Inspector at the time, I think this film is taken from an old VHS cassette, I seem to remember a few were produced around the North West by AJC Productions.
Outstanding knowledge....i started on railway mid 80s...and on the footplate 1989 there where loads of 'old boy' drivers who would impart there wisdom upon you ....never a dull moment😊
