Welcome to the East Lancashire Railways' DMU gala 2023, in this video we take you behind the scenes to view work going on in the shed on the DMU's currently out of service, which includes a class 122 bubble car and the (1 of 2) class 121 trailer for the bubble car (squeak), as well as this we take you through the very rare 105 power car and trailer, including the setup checks for the day. On top of this, we also bring running shots of short hauled sets supplementing the DMUs that are out of service and a variety of DMU shots and drags.

I love the sound of there engines and exhausts it takes me back to the early 1980s when I used to travel from Stalybridge to Stockport on a class 121 single car bubblecar dmu I was only a kid but I loved trains and I still do to this day! 😎

It's good to see that both refurbished and un-refurbished DMUs are well represented in preservation. I know many will prefer DMUs in original condition but many units did serve in the refurbed condition for decades and so are an important part of their history. I may be unusual in liking the retro fitted fluorescent lighting but that's mostly down to one of my other passions which is lighting.

When walking around the Cravens it was noted the fuel fillers being on the body side, the reason for this is 105’s don’t have underslung tanks, the fuel tank is in a sectioned off part of the underframe between the longitudinal metal beams. 51485 is one of the 3rd batch built and has differences to the original batch 1 series at Stratford the DSD valve and isolating cock were in the guards brake and on LMR batch 2 DMC's it was under a passenger seat at the back of the vehicle. On Stratford 105’s (originally 106's) the generator (not alternator) ran off No2 engine instead of No1 engine as other units. 56121 is a batch 1 vehicle and these had hinged doors to the cab instead of sliding.

Great video boys, what a professional Mr Bonello was. The Cravens units were my faves back in the day. AEC engines are best!

@RailcarRestorers 7 месяцев назад

Many thanks for commenting. We are glad you enjoyed the video. Mr Bonello is certainly very thorough with his explanations!

Another great video, enjoyable and infortmative. I'm curious about the DMU being hauled by the class 25 at around 15'30". Is there an MU connection with the loco, or is the DMU driver just adding some welly to the proceedings?

@RailcarRestorers 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for the comment. The Dmu and loco were driven in tandem so both had a driver in which is why they both made a lovely noise!
