BR Diesels.(Best Clips at York.1986.).

Wish i could go back and experience this era of rail, 60s/70s/80s/90s. Rail network was good and trains that all had character. Todays era is so plain

[@19DaRrEn85]

What a brilliant piece of footage!!why cant it still be like this :-( Liked and subscribed!

[@4SRKT]

So much of my youth spent down there at Holgate Junction or at the Dicky Bridge sidings. This vid is MY era and a wonderful piece of nostaligia. Thanks!

[@train4905]

Wow I was 14 then.brings back memories.thanku

[@ZathGB]

Marvellous era. Great locos, great station, original track layout and not one inch of catenary anywhere.

[@AJ-yw5zy]

Nice video, just feels like yesterday 🙂those stratford 47's still look the part. Nice to see that grid working for a living.

[@martinnevey7258]

Thanks for the nostalgia. ..up here in Fife it used to be class 26/27 most days ..and a few 37s you could hear them coming a mile off...it's all rather bland now...why progress has to take the soul out of everything beats me

[@rodgertaylor2387]

The car carrier something else great footage 👍

[@1973ts]

Wonderful memories for me there Trevor. Thanks for sharing them.

[@alanbottomley5581]

Good memories, impossible to replace those sounds with the poor modern electric stuff today

[@turbomac5195]

I know shit right these machines had spirite

[@sheba31]

The thing with your vids Trev are that you capture trains with mixed liveries like br blue with swallow exec colours as they truly were,most modellers run all one livery rakes on their layouts,well worth waiting for the class 37 with its mixed freight,thanks for sharing with us all.

[@davidclark7988]

oh to have my own TARDIS and revisit my childhood... people say you don't realise what you got until it's gone. how true !

[@TrevorLedgeway]

+David Clark Yes David,Great Days....''

[@sidewindersid4180]

Very true indeed.

[@magicdave93]

Some of my all time favourites Trevor, thanks for posting.

[@TrevorLedgeway]

Thank You...Glad You Liked The Footage.....Trevor.''

[@stephenpowell5912]

Amazing What was running on the Railway Network in this Country in the 1960s till the Early 1990s before Privatisation.

[@gazza1858]

Brilliant video

[@leeclarke2743]

Lovely job

[@williamradford9631]

31 years ago, good old IC blue and white livery.

[@michaelloughlin734]

Great footage some powerful locos.

[@af757]

and not an overhead wire in sight ! Those were the days when photography was a pleasure. Now it's all wires and masts !

[@Class1Adventures]

Brilliant video.

[@lewisner]

I was reading how they raised Holgate Road Bridge by one foot in 1980. That HST at 2.47 would have been touching it before then.

[@TrevorLedgeway]

Great Days Dave,We lived right near here so i was there quite a lot.Miss those 37s & 47s.Cheers,Trevor.''

[@internet123ism2]

Took a 125 from Paddington to Newport in 1983. Glad I had the chance before it all changed.

[@howarth004]

Just as busy if not more back then Trevor , good one

[@dgattenb]

fab!

[@mirvids5036]

Nice footage, I especially like the MGR coal trains. Spending the night at Retford waiting for the level crossing signals alerting you to yet another load of coal.The railways were far better as BR and not this mish mash we have now. My only criticism of your footage is its slightly distorted between 4:3 format and something trying to be widescreen.

[@Cerebro1983uk]

I was only 3 years old in 1986 I am now 35 years old in 2018 how times have changed since British Rail Green and Blue also Rail freight Grey and the intercity liveries.

[@stevewyman2822]

yeh, just how I remember it ~ whatta great place it was back then...used to do Friday nights overnights..on the platform..usually Platform 9...used to get just about everything come through..in the wee hours..was amazing man..and often spent hours during day under Holgate bridge..parked my bike on hard standing ( RD 400E ) which I had then..and sat there with my back pack of books..collecting loads....ahh mate..how that place is completely ruined now..tracks ripped up, washing lines everywhere..and probly all that one would find now..is HST's , Electric 91's, and like everywhere else..just boring frigging units..!!!.

[@TrevorLedgeway]

+Steve Wyman No where near as good as it was but it was a great time around the middle 80s.'''

[@stevewyman2822]

thats right mate...that was around the time, that I used to go there..on a regular basis...was frigging great then..!!! :)

[@TrevorLedgeway]

Yes i have some DVDs for sale if your interested.Two of the York Area & one of i filmed at Dawlish,Devon.They are all from 1986-1990.Cheers,Trevor.''

[@nobby3265]

I wish the railway was re-nationalised again because right now the companies are failing to keep the trains clean and constant delayed services

[@TrevorLedgeway]

A pity but don't think it will happen.......'''

[@nobby3265]

Trevor Ledgeway maybe it will but we have to wait and see....

[@ZathGB]

Can only happen if and when we leave the EU. It's part of EU policy that state run railways be sold off. We did it and it destroyed our network almost as much as Beeching. Pre privatisation we had busy goods yards, multiple works for build and repair of motive power and rolling stock. Now we have next to nothing and buy it all in. Disgrace.

[@norbertpaxman]

Fantastic fantastic fantastic,more please Trevor .Do you have any DVDs for sale ?

[@duxberry1958]

Top video Trevor

[@TrevorLedgeway]

Thanks Mark,As you will see on my video's you will see a lot of the blue eru at York and Dawlish....Trevor.''

[@duxberry1958]

Yea the good old days

[@jimmyviaductophilelawley5587]

1:31 no way..a peak in 86 thought they were all gone by then

[@Thornaby37]

They lasted until 1988. Still loads of them around in 1986, especially the 45/1s

[@TheBritishLegions]

yay 56097 is at Great Central Nottingham

[@duxberry1958]

l always liked me SF 47,s

[@MrJimbaloid]

Loved bashing hated (and still do hate) flailer's, what a way to make enthusiasts look weird.

[@jacthegamer9108]

I hope we use railfreight more becausw of the CO2 cut down campaign by network rail.

[@EnidAgnusDei]

Another place you can no longer go due to bloody network rail!

[@markwillcocks7701]

I copped there in early 90s
