March was the strangest of places! quite remote and not what you were expecting... and you could always expect to see a wide variety of motive power, off almost any region if you were lucky! days i will always cherish!

Remember that 31, great story. Misspent youth of mine wondering around marshalling yards when i could of been chasing girlfriends etc. Trains were like a drug for me, now 32 years later I’m still driving them.

Next stop Berrys for the Rat?

[@WhittlerKevBushcraft]

I worked there on loco shunt late 80s....can’t remember all those engines there...are you sure it wasn’t the 90s?

[@supafuckinmingster]

Are withdrawn/stored passenger coaches left in a separate location? Seems to be just locos here.

Nice video mate. Shame, but the March TMD now has gone...

It'd be seven years before the Peaks left as Tinsleys batch went first
