Filmed between 1993 and 1998 this video was available to purchase on VHS back in the late 90s.
A 3 hour study of the line from Saltash to Penzance in travel order including the China Clay Branches before the days of the ubiquitous class 66.
Predominantly filmed on a Pro Hi8 Sony EVW 300p camera we see a variety of liveries and TPO workings now consigned to history.

My word, don’t where to start, watched your Waterloo/Exeter films, Don’t where to start with this one, just outstanding, there are hours editing sitting by a lot of these obscure locations to capture the images that you have, just so the branch lines etc, night departures etc, no one as really done, Just the best of really you’re got of an era, can watch it time and again. 🤓

One of the best videos of this time period, thanks for sharing.

HST with a BG at the rear, would make an interesting modelling idea.

Member of staff seen at 33:24 is the same person who drives the Falmouth-Truro leg of Video 125’s Cornish Branches production.

No idea why the hst Penzance to Paddington at 1:40.10 had only the lead 43 power unit?

@davidbeckett3345 5 лет назад

At 3,36 the train left Paddington at midnight , how cme it took so long to get to Penzance ?assuming it,s about 6 in the morning

@thehogfat 5 лет назад

I think it was booked to stay in Plymouth for 50 mins, where it may have dropped off a few coaches - it also was routed via Bristol rather than the Berks and Hants, so had a very leisurely journey

@@thehogfat & david Beckett Correct it used to have 30 minutes at Exeter for crew change, then as always a pair of Sleepers came off at Plymouth then and currently (plus Motorrail in the 80's) which used to be 45 minutes to an hour over the course of 30 years it's changed, after Plymouth it stops and most stations and from Par to Penzance it serves a lot of early workers for stations to Truro and Penzance.
