BURTON ON TRENT STATION on 24th February 1988
Continuing with my archive of video recording between the years of 1985 to 2001 this clip is of Burton On Trent Station taken on 24/02/1988. I hope the video takes you back to this period with fond memories. Feel free to comment, good or bad, all comments are read and greatly appreciated,but it is not always possible to answer each individually. Sit back and enjoy this latest production remembering all those now long gone Locomotive classes and other types of traction. Many thanks for all subscriptions and all of those viewers who have kindly shown an interest in my material. AAhh the lovely pong from the massive Brewery beside the railway...
