A few hours spent at Reading station on the 1st March 1991 where we see plenty of trains with 33's , 37's , 47's , 56's , 60's , 73's and HST's being seen.
Lovely vid. This was a favourite haunt of mine back in the 70's. Then the main traction were westerns and 47's. Very occasionally a peak would turn up on the York Poole working. Latterly a pair of 20's were rostered on a working to Early power station. Never saw a 37.
Great video thanks, brings back good memories. Travelled Down to Reading regularly from Nottingham. Train spotting at its best. All you would see today is units after units. 👍
Yes not the same now. I was working somewhere around London in those days so Reading was an easy spot for me! Hope you have seen some of my other stuff.
Great video, can I possibly ask what equipment you used to transfer from VHS to computer, I am looking to purchase this week, dozens of VHS video to share, thanks.
Hi there I got it professionally done by a company that specialized in such things as they were able to clean the tapes up first so increasing the quality!
I wonder if anyone in 1991 would have thought that 5 yeoman sheds and 4 more on the way would suddenly lead to hundreds of there descendants arriving from just 7 years later.....
Well I remember there was plenty of talk before and when they first arrived but they soon proved themselves particularly with there reliability which was far superior to anything else!
