BR in the 1980s - The Alan Harrison Collection Part 8 Newcastle Central (British Rail Trains)

During the summer of 1986, my good friend Alan travelled around the UK, armed with a hefty VHS camera, recording the railway scene. I'm delighted to be able to bring you the results. In this video, Alan spends time at Newcastle Central station. He captures some incredible footage from the castle keep at the northern end of the station, including a terminating Peak hauled trans pennine using the northern bay platform. I'd love to hear your thoughts about this video. Please leave comments below. Thank you.
मुझे इस वीडियो के बारे में आपके विचार सुनना अच्छा लगेगा। कृपया नीचे टिप्पणी छोड़ें। धन्यवाद।
1986 की गर्मियों के दौरान, मेरे अच्छे दोस्त एलन ने ब्रिटेन के चारों ओर यात्रा की, एक भारी वीएचएस कैमरे से लैस होकर, रेलवे दृश्य को रिकॉर्ड कर रहा था। मैं आपको परिणाम लाने में सक्षम होने के लिए खुश हूं। इस वीडियो में एलन न्यूकैसल सेंट्रल स्टेशन पर समय बिता रहे हैं। वह स्टेशन के उत्तरी छोर पर स्थित महल के कुछ अविश्वसनीय फुटेज को कैप्चर करता है, जिसमें उत्तरी बे प्लेटफॉर्म का उपयोग करते हुए एक टर्मिनेटिंग पीक हाउलेड ट्रांस पेनाइन भी शामिल है।
1986 年夏天，我的好朋友艾伦带着一个巨大的 VHS 摄像机环游英国，记录铁路场景。我很高兴能够为您带来结果。在这段视频中，艾伦在纽卡斯尔中央车站度过了一段时光。他从车站北端的城堡中捕捉到了一些令人难以置信的镜头，包括使用北部海湾平台拖运的终点峰。我很想听听你对这个视频的看法。请在下方留言。谢谢你。
1986年の夏、私の親友のアランは、巨大なVHSカメラを装備して英国を旅し、鉄道のシーンを記録しました。結果をお届けできることをうれしく思います。このビデオでは、アランはニューカッスル中央駅で時間を過ごします。彼は、駅の北端にある城の砦から、北の湾のプラットフォームを使用して終了するピーク運搬トランスペナインを含む、いくつかの素晴らしい映像をキャプチャします。このビデオについてのあなたの考えを聞いてみたいです。以下にコメントを残してください。ありがとうございました。
Durante el verano de 1986, mi buen amigo Alan viajó por el Reino Unido, armado con una gran cámara VHS, grabando la escena del tren. Estoy encantada de poder traeros los resultados. En este video, Alan pasa tiempo en la estación de Newcastle Central. Captura algunas imágenes increíbles de la fortaleza del castillo en el extremo norte de la estación, incluido un trans pennine transportado por Peak que termina usando la plataforma de la bahía norte. Me encantaría escuchar tu opinión sobre este video. Por favor, deje comentarios a continuación. Gracias.
Au cours de l'été 1986, mon bon ami Alan a parcouru le Royaume-Uni, armé d'une grosse caméra VHS, enregistrant la scène ferroviaire. Je suis ravi de pouvoir vous apporter les résultats. Dans cette vidéo, Alan passe du temps à la gare centrale de Newcastle. Il capture des images incroyables du donjon du château à l'extrémité nord de la gare, y compris une pennine trans transportée par Peak en utilisant la plate-forme de la baie nord. J'aimerais entendre vos pensées sur cette vidéo. Veuillez laisser des commentaires ci-dessous. Merci.
خلال صيف عام 1986 ، سافر صديقي العزيز آلان في جميع أنحاء المملكة المتحدة ، مسلحًا بكاميرا VHS ضخمة ، وسجل مشهد السكك الحديدية. يسعدني أن أكون قادرًا على تقديم النتائج لك. في هذا الفيديو ، يقضي آلان وقتًا في محطة نيوكاسل المركزية. لقد التقط بعض اللقطات المذهلة من القلعة الموجودة في الطرف الشمالي من المحطة ، بما في ذلك قمة منتهية تم نقلها بينين باستخدام منصة الخليج الشمالية. أود أن أسمع أفكارك حول هذا الفيديو. الرجاء ترك التعليقات أدناه. شكرا لك.
1986 ਦੀਆਂ ਗਰਮੀਆਂ ਦੌਰਾਨ, ਮੇਰੇ ਚੰਗੇ ਦੋਸਤ ਐਲਨ ਨੇ ਰੇਲਵੇ ਦ੍ਰਿਸ਼ ਨੂੰ ਰਿਕਾਰਡ ਕਰਦੇ ਹੋਏ, ਇੱਕ ਭਾਰੀ VHS ਕੈਮਰੇ ਨਾਲ ਲੈਸ, ਯੂਕੇ ਦੇ ਆਲੇ-ਦੁਆਲੇ ਯਾਤਰਾ ਕੀਤੀ। ਮੈਂ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਲਈ ਨਤੀਜੇ ਲਿਆਉਣ ਦੇ ਯੋਗ ਹੋ ਕੇ ਖੁਸ਼ ਹਾਂ। ਇਸ ਵੀਡੀਓ ਵਿੱਚ, ਐਲਨ ਨਿਊਕੈਸਲ ਸੈਂਟਰਲ ਸਟੇਸ਼ਨ 'ਤੇ ਸਮਾਂ ਬਿਤਾਉਂਦਾ ਹੈ। ਉਹ ਸਟੇਸ਼ਨ ਦੇ ਉੱਤਰੀ ਸਿਰੇ 'ਤੇ ਕਿਲ੍ਹੇ ਦੇ ਰੱਖ-ਰਖਾਅ ਤੋਂ ਕੁਝ ਸ਼ਾਨਦਾਰ ਫੁਟੇਜ ਹਾਸਲ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ, ਜਿਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਉੱਤਰੀ ਖਾੜੀ ਪਲੇਟਫਾਰਮ ਦੀ ਵਰਤੋਂ ਕਰਦੇ ਹੋਏ ਇੱਕ ਸਮਾਪਤੀ ਪੀਕ ਹੋਲਡ ਟ੍ਰਾਂਸ ਪੇਨਾਈਨ ਸ਼ਾਮਲ ਹੈ। ਮੈਂ ਇਸ ਵੀਡੀਓ ਬਾਰੇ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਵਿਚਾਰ ਸੁਣਨਾ ਪਸੰਦ ਕਰਾਂਗਾ। ਕਿਰਪਾ ਕਰਕੇ ਹੇਠਾਂ ਟਿੱਪਣੀਆਂ ਛੱਡੋ। ਤੁਹਾਡਾ ਧੰਨਵਾਦ.
Im Sommer 1986 reiste mein guter Freund Alan mit einer kräftigen VHS-Kamera durch Großbritannien und filmte die Eisenbahnszene. Ich freue mich, Ihnen die Ergebnisse präsentieren zu können. In diesem Video verbringt Alan Zeit am Hauptbahnhof von Newcastle. Er nimmt einige unglaubliche Aufnahmen vom Burgfried am nördlichen Ende der Station auf, einschließlich eines von Peak gezogenen Trans Pennine, der die nördliche Buchtplattform benutzt. Ich würde gerne deine Meinung zu diesem Video hören. Bitte hinterlassen Sie Kommentare unten. Danke.
Vào mùa hè năm 1986, người bạn tốt của tôi, Alan đã đi du lịch vòng quanh Vương quốc Anh, trang bị một chiếc máy ảnh VHS khổng lồ, ghi lại cảnh đường sắt. Tôi rất vui vì có thể mang lại kết quả cho bạn. Trong video này, Alan dành thời gian ở nhà ga Trung tâm Newcastle. Anh ấy ghi lại một số cảnh quay đáng kinh ngạc từ lâu đài được lưu giữ ở cuối phía bắc của nhà ga, bao gồm cả một đỉnh núi đang kết thúc bằng cách sử dụng nền tảng vịnh phía bắc. Tôi muốn nghe suy nghĩ của bạn về video này. Hãy để lại bình luận bên dưới. Cảm ơn bạn.

That camera is just legendary for its time. My parents were not even teens yet.

[@kartwheelkarl]

Thanks for the great comment TT. Apparently, Alan’s video camera equipment was rather cumbersome! As well as the handheld unit, it was wired to separate recording equipment that he carried around in a satchel. I find it incredible to think that he was able to not only travel around the country with it, but to also take his bicycle along so he could cycle out to some great line side locations. I’m so grateful that he did because he was able to capture some priceless images.

[@timwattison4419]

The place was never the same without Deltic's. Only 4 years earlier, the air would be alive to the sound of roaring Napiers !!!! ☹️

[@neilrobinson1956]

Not forgetting the 'Starting Bells' as those Napiers roared away....

[@kartwheelkarl]

Ohh, how wonderful that must have been. Never saw the deltics there in their heyday Tim, but I did get a Deltic from there to (of all places!) Sheffield! It was the late nineties and the deltic was on hire to cross country at the time. It would have been the end to a great day, had I not just returned from the Stadium of Light having seen Sunderland beat my team, Stockport County!

[@marcushenno]

Wish i could go back and experience these magnificent trains and the era they had. Also newcastle looked nicer then, plus didnt know newc operated with 3 tracks between the platforms back then

[@kartwheelkarl]

Incredible to see how much it's changed isn't it Marcus? Thanks for your comments. Really pleased you're enjoying the collection.

[@pj6641]

1.11 where the car park is now used to be the bay platforms to the tyneside loop which was closed due to change to the Tyne and Wear Metro, also the eventual removal of the famous Diamond Crossings now replaced with a double slip because of Electrification

[@kartwheelkarl]

Have not been there for donkey’s years Paul but I have seen photos and it’s incredible to see how much it’s changed. The track work traversed by the peak hauled transpennine services as they approach and leave the bay platform in Alan’s film is wonderful isn’t it?

[@leenettywilson528]

Another gr8 video wen I watch these videos my mind is thinking so much about how the railways use to be love them old diesel locomotives, godbless you,

[@modernrailvideo5412]

excellent video of hows things where before the wires came along and track modification

[@kartwheelkarl]

Really glad you enjoyed the video MRV, and thank you for the great comment. Alan’s films really are window back to happy days aren’t they.

[@andrewchaston503]

Fantastic. What is so noticeable to me is the lack of freight in particular coal and coke. As a kid I spotted at Central in the mid 60s the coalies were one after the other in both directions. Thatcher had done her worst by the mid 80s!

[@kartwheelkarl]

I’d love to have seen the coal trains you’re referring to Andrew. I remember the start of the eighties, when at certain places (eg Retford low level) you could still see a constant stream of MGR workings. But, as you say, as the 80s progressed, the coal trains became fewer and fewer. And now, in the uk, I hear what coal traffic remains, is purely imported. We do have certain routes here in Aus that still carry huge amounts of coal traffic, but if the anti coal lobby have their way, the mines they serve will be closed within the next ten years!! Really glad you’re enjoying the collection and thank you for the great comment.

[@andrewchaston503]

What's going to happen on very still and extremely cold and mid winter days...that will show the lunacy of cutting out coal altogether in Britain Your channel is great..keep up the good work and go the Aussies

[@kartwheelkarl]

@@andrewchaston503 Thank you for your incredibly kind words Andrew. It’s lovely to hear from people who enjoy the content I produce. We have exactly the same argument about coal raging over here. There is a large and extremely vociferous anti-coal lobby who seek to end all mining and burning of coal. Trouble is, the coal mines are one of the states biggest employers and they contribute huge amounts to the GDP, with much of what they produce being exported. And as they decommission the coal powered generators, and because renewables aren’t yet up the job of providing the base load, there have been increasingly regular network failures.

[@frenchsteam7356]

Just watched this for the first time. I was working at Heaton Depot at this time, it's amazing how many loco-hauled sets there was Liverpools, Bristols. The 143s did look good in Regional Railways Livery -except they were useless -especially the gearboxes. Replaced by Voith eventually. I did miss the deltics though, having said that the HSTs were well worth the money, comfortable and even if you lost a power car you would still get to your destination.

[@kartwheelkarl]

Thanks for the great comments and background info FS. Glad you enjoyed the video. It must have been brilliant working at Heaton back in the seventies and eighties? I envy you very much.

[@livingonthetyne]

Funny how the station was huge back in the day and slowly shrunk as time went on, and now its like really small in terms of how much passes through at once.

[@kartwheelkarl]

I agree completely Rochelle. When you compare the shots Alan took from the top of the castle north of the station, and compare them to recent shots, it's incredible to see how much the track layout and platform arrangements have been rationalised.

[@Senna-xi1gr]

Great old footage. Cheers 👍🇬🇧

[@kartwheelkarl]

Thanks Senna. Really glad you’re enjoying the collection.

[@squeaksvids5886]

I quite liked the original Provincial livery the class 142 and 143s had.

[@kartwheelkarl]

It was quite smart wasn't it Paul.

[@chrisbrown3078]

Fantastic footage. Thanks for uploading this.

You’re very welcome Chris. Glad you’re enjoying the collection.

Bit of a far cry from Pinza and Tulyar eh Andrew?

@@graemekornicki6810 Many "home repaints" would look like they'd been painted with a yard broom at this definition 🙂

[@roderickscott7429]

Wheres the train heading for thats going over the bridge just after 2 minute mark ?

[@kartwheelkarl]

It’s heading over the Tyne High Level Bridge towards the Gateshead side of the river Roderick. After the bridge, it will fork right to pass Gateshead depot and rejoin the East Coast mainline heading south. The bridge means that services to and from York and London can arrive or depart at either end of Newcastle Central Station, as we see with the the peak hauled trans pennine later in the video. Despite coming from the South, it uses a north facing bay platform. Local services can fork left after the bridge and head for Sunderland.
