A SMOKEY Lady Diana MASQUERADING As SCRAPPED Classmates And CLASS 86 + BLACK 5! | 20/10/24

[@FrontSideBus]

I really do think we have gone backwards with all of these Class 800's that they all seem to be buying these days. Those old Mk3's had much better seating and were a lot smoother and quieter!

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@FrontSideBus yes, sadly they are more focused on reliability and power cost to operate which are what the class 800s are good at.

[@FrontSideBus]

@@TRAlNVlDEOS Didn't they have to get a load of IC225 sets back into service because of faults with the 800's? So much for reliability lol.

the 47 was pretty standard really as smoke is concerned , u always got a nice little flume of black smoke on departure . The south end of New st would be masked by a fog of flumes if one was really ill back in the day lol and it would take several mins to clear ! Great vid

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@nickedwards2904 thanks! 👍

[@Barbarapape]

Hurray, the Black 5 is back and returning down the Cumbrian coast line. This bring back childhood memories, sadly i missed most of the steam era, they were repced by the infamous DMU's ! Thanks for another nostalgic video from Carlisle😊👍💗

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@Barbarapape Glad you enjoyed the video, I do like the black 5s. 😃

A propper train at work as theyre built better in England and they locomotives & carriages was built to last not like the tin can foreign crappy trash built in Spain by C.A.F! nice old-school duff & sparky class 86 action as the sound of class 86s trashton motors & cooling fans brings back some good memories of being at Manchester piccadilly as a kid in the early 1980s! nice puff-puff choo-choo train also! good video 🥰

44871 pulling well there, 12 ciaches plus the 47 in rear...impressive!

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@jaybee1921 yed, 44971 is a regular now on these railtours!

[@brianwillson9567]

A PROPER train!

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@brianwillson9567 I agree. 👍

[@marshallman7608]

I hope she's enjoying her retirement. The 47/7s were worked hard up here in BR days, non stop all day on high acceleration/hard braking services, so hard that every A exam (55 hours in traffic) they had the brake blocks replaced, way more than any other loco.

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@marshallman7608 she certainly looked and sounded amazing in Carlisle anyway, thanks for the comment! 👍

[@markcf83]

It should be noted they weren't exactly given an easy life in the South either..

[@middleportjunction]

Great video, thanks for sharing

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@middleportjunction thank you!

[@ianpark1906]

86s should have never lost that colour scheme.. by far the best .

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@ianpark1906 it does look amazing doesn’t it! 👍

[@christopherhood9241]

keep your kettle, 712 sounds bl00dy awesome.

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@christopherhood9241 yes 712 sounds brilliant doesn’t it! 😃

[@alanthurley6061]

Nice to see real trains at last steam, desiel, and electrics with proper carriages Mk 1s , Mk2s and Mk3s .Like one of the comments said better than all these foreign tin cans.

[@WhisperingWiltshire]

5:26 That acceleration reminds me of the Tube! (Don’t know which stock though)

[@philipspencer1834]

Thanks for the video! 😎👍 Why change the numbers of Lady Di at all, and why the split personality of 2 x different numbers? 🤔 do we know?

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@philipspencer1834 just for a change and to honour the now scrapped classmates i think! 👍

what time was this?

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@rxcko172 hi this was filmed on 5/10/24 so it is a bit of a late upload! 👍

Fantastic

@@stestepney thank you!

[@JimmysTransportMarvels]

Very nice. Did you see the 185s!?

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@JimmysTransportMarvels thanks, I didn’t see the 185s sadly, although I did see photos! 👍

[@JimmysTransportMarvels]

@TRAlNVlDEOS I got them at Tebay and at Hellifield, but the pullman and them left at the same time, so I didn't get the best view of the 185s! But it worked out, me filming the pullman on my phone and trying to film the 185s in the other direction on the camera! 😅

[@_RabbitLeader]

Terrible livery for the 86! Why the white paint around the cab windows and roof?

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@_RabbitLeader Im not sure why these stylistic choices were made, however I think it looks quite nice, although it’s definitely not my favourite livery, it is interesting to get different people opinions on subjects like this because I had another comment yesterday saying how much they loved the livery,! Thank you for the comment.

[@_RabbitLeader]

@@TRAlNVlDEOS I never was enthusiastic about the Finsbury Park deltics with white paint around the windows either. I don’t know if this class 86 was a genuine livery from British Rail days or is a livery dreamt up by West Coast Rail for this locomotive?

[@TRAlNVlDEOS]

@@_RabbitLeader i think it is a genuine livery 👍

[@huwprice881]

@@_RabbitLeaderjust goes to show though, I loved the Finsbury Park Deltics with the white window surrounds! 😊
