Trains in the 1990s 

Fab footage of Diesel Traction in the 1990s ❤️⚡Sounds from my Childhood Growing up to my Teenage years born 50 years ago ❤️ Miss the sights of these iconic Diesels and Electric Class 85 and 87 units 🎼🎶⚡❤️

You could always hear the Salop 47 ticking over at Wolves bay back then.

Brings back thoughts of my childhood holidays.

I wish i was old enough back then to experience this era! Amazing locos all over

One of the best vids I’ve seen from ‘my’ era. Loads of variety

great stuff. :) brought back a lot of memories. nice to see Wolverhampton on there, particularly with the 50. my dad would sometimes take me to Coventry of an evening so we could come back on that train. :) thank you for sharing.

Nice shots of the old Grid Irons Class 56s. Great work.

Fantastic vid . Loved it, now I’m reminiscing

2 pairs crossing and a banker.. wonderful stuff..

Some great footage their of some proper wcml traction (85008,85026 & 85030) thanks for sharing.

This was very much my era too and my old haunts ! Happy memories !

To me, there is no better job than that of a train driver!

Some excellent footage - thanks for sharing! Very good picture and sound quality.

Some excellent thrash there. Doubledheaded 37s on limestone with another banking!

Great footage

Nice to see long gentle curves & point work in the slow running shots. Drab it may have been but “corporate blue” was very attractive in its own way. A good era reminiscent of the BR Green & Maroon days! The “exec” livery brought a lighter and classier look to express stock.

Really good stuff - no awful 125s. BR was cool even at that late date.

Nice footage, but I get the feeling that you had more footage after the locos had moved past showing the coaches or wagons. If you do, I hope you'll share that footage and make more videos showing the rest. As much as people love the sight and sound of locos... every bit of this video has moved into history. As a railway modeller, videos showing formations of trains are perfect source material for replicating them! :^)

Good stuff!

Confusion at Buxton!

What are the tunnels at 28:16 and 28:22? They look amazing from the station at least...

During the de-nationalised rail industry . The collapse of the locomotive and rolling stock manufacturing in Britain and the prequel to DB , SNCF & NL Sporwegen taking the rake off of British tax payer subsidies , BR rolling stock sell off and re-leasing. The fragmentation of the Intercity brand and the implosion of the relatively integrated Network South East . The young naive idiots at the treasury even overruled Major Fragmentation of services and rolling stock rail crashes under Railtrack and asset stripping of BR estate assets for private gain . The main beneficiaries ? Siemens & DRB (DB) , the commercial / state survivors of pre war Germany. Come back Bob Reid and Peter Parker all is forgiven and appreciated. Re-nationalise to the TOCS now to join Network Rail , LNER & ScotRail . Commercial collapse to a social enterprise like the rest of Europe, FS ,RENFE SNCB, DB & Swedish State Railways
