This is a compilation of 46 of the Class in action (mostly, sadly not for 013 Agincourt) at various locations in the south between 1988 and 1990.
Each loco featured, in Class number order, gets one clip, and the film lasts slightly under 1 hour.
Unfortunately I have no video footage of 006 Neptune, 010 Monarch, 011 Centurion or 014 Warspite, so these aren't included in the video.
All still photos used are my own. The intro music is the beginning of a track called 'Desktop Symphony' by a duo called Non Beviamo (which is me and Mrs Geoff!).
I hope you enjoy it - please let me know what you think in the comments.
thanks
Geoff@OldOakTrains.

Just over 50 minutes of Class 50s on my 50th birthday. Thanks for another great video.

Love the video mate, especially the clip of me 50 031 'Hood'!

@OldOakTrains Месяц назад

Well if you like Hood, you’ll like the Paddington station videos on the channel. By some fluke, it was my most filmed Class 50. Thanks for watching. 👍😊

Great video. Used to see a class 50 with a single dmu carriage drive through the chiltern line every midnight back in 1984.

Great compilation with almost every 50! Thanks & good job.

@OldOakTrains 10 месяцев назад

Thanks. People seem to like the compilation format, I might do some other Classes/ Types. Thanks for the feedback. 👍😊

My personal favourite is 50049, only because it looked good in Railfreight & also looks good in contemporary GBRF blue as well! 😬

Sadly it is one of the locos I was unable to capture that often. Also, since 2006 whenever I’ve seen it, I’ve not had the video camera with me - or it’s been stationary at an open day etc. Luckily nowadays there’s always the ‘phone! Thanks for watching and commenting. 😊

7 should have lived on in green to today - classic livery!!

@OldOakTrains 5 месяцев назад

Pity they changed the name though, from Hercules, in my view. Why couldn’t they just have repainted a couple of 50s in the Great Western anniversary green and left the names alone, like they did with the 47s?

@OldOakTrains 10 месяцев назад

Thanks Steve, much appreciated. I might do some othe loco class compilations rather than concentrating on locations. Cheers. Geoff.

@OldOakTrains I'll watch the video when I'm back in the uk. I'm currently in Luxembourg for a few days. Your videos are fantastic mate.

My Lords an near hour very nice. You know you will have to please the other lot with 2 hours of that other type 4, LOL. anyway very good to see them all... of those you caught on camera again many thanks. keep up the good work.

@OldOakTrains 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for the feedback. 😊👍. Well yes, I did think as I was putting this together “I wonder whether a compilation of 47s would be of interest?” Of course, for those particular Type 4s, I could do one hour of passenger and one of freight…….. watch this space ! 😂

@@OldOakTrains Whilst not my class I did find myself watching 40 minutes of west country 47's & 33's from another channel from May 1992 I kind of enjoyed the nostalgia of the end of the Mule loco hauled, so yes it would keep our strumming friends happy.

@logbasher you do realise the term log was a derogatory term used by those who disliked vacs and it was hated by us 50 cranks?😁

@OldOakTrains 10 месяцев назад

I didn’t know that. In fact I’d never heard the expression ’ logbasher’ before - but maybe I’ve lived a sheltered life - Lol. 😂

@Thunderer0872 10 месяцев назад

@@stevecutts5450 D'uh it was ironic taking it back. I had changed it but for some reason YT made it show again, I just fixed that back to what it should be. But yes I did know what it meant and it was to be Ironic & throw up a middle finger to the clowns that used that term.
