What a fabulous video! As a young teenager I worked for a coal merchant who had bunkers at Coundon Rd. I vividly recall the shunt on Mon/Wed/Fri usually handled by a class 25. Once the wagons were left and the engine had departed we would use a tractor to put the wagons (mostly 15t) next to the bunker we were going to empty it into. The driver of the tractor would push the wagon and I would run alongside, jumping on the handbrake at the given moment and pushing the peg in to keep the brake on. The coal merchants I can recall are V. Egan, W. Morriss, S. Porretta & Sons, Co-Op.
