A very interesting and informative program as always. Well done. I worked on the railways most of my working life and i came on the railways in 1970, aged 15, working as a lad porter in a large goods yard full of pre BR and BR wagons. Just looking at the wagon builders plates was an education in itself. The category of couplings fell into three types, loose couple, fitted vacuum and none fitted. Some of the plank wagons still had the private owner names, either painted over, but many times you could still see parts of the names. I collected many wagon plates over the years. Your attention to detail and historical information is very good. Looking forward to another of your excellent videos.

Hi Martin thank you very much indeed and what a wonderful start you had. Seeing the old names was fantastic as they were all but obliterated after the war. I am truly grateful for your observations. I do work hard on research so its good to know its appreciated. I am just coming to the end of my railway career now.

Back in the 90s I collected some of these wonderful plank and hopper wagons to put on my linear railway diorama. I still have them and display the HAA wagons some of which are individually weathered. Thank you for this wonderful video

What a beautiful collection of wagons and engines. I am so glad you have not weathered them as they truly are works of art. The history of their use is also very interesting and makes for a great video. I hope you will do many more like this.

I have always admired the Peco rubber springs from their W-irons. I recently had no option but to remove some from an ancient OO wagon and fit them most successfully to an equally ancient K's metal kit in EM.

Used to love these old wagons ! The train stopped , the wagons bang together one by one ? Common to see the Diesel brake tender on classes like the 31 and 37 hauling the classic 16 ton mineral wagons ! Even into the 80s .

Hello Mike, As always you have produced a classic video. Your videos could be classified as documentaries they are so good. I learnt a lot from this and it will make a difference in how I run my trains. Thank you Mike, David.

Hi mike, I'm not a "data base" minded sort of person. I wish I was quite frankly. I've looked at it but I'm not sure how I would use it. I shall have to view that portion of your video again. David.

Thanks for a very interesting lesson and great running session! This was especially interesting for me since I've recently entered the next era of British coal, by getting a very nice Hornby class 58 in Railfreight triple grey coal distribution livery. And six HAA wagons (I need many more to make a realistic train). I hope you'll cover that era in a future lecture. /Anders

Hi Anders how are you? thanks for the nice comment, I was wondering if the comments were going to start lol. I do indeed have a Rail-freight Red Stripe video in the early planning stages. That should cover your new era.

Picked up a few mainline wagons in joblots and I am always amazed in the quality and detail especially compared to Hornby of the same era. The moulds would even hold up today in my opinion

Certainly was, every wagon that took part was cleaned and serviced ready, same for the locos. Research went on for over a month to be honest, lots of digging out old business documents and reading online. Then all the moves were planned out, off camera rehearsal to make sure all the locos we up to the task. Script written then recorded, background sounds identified and permission to use sought. Set up the lights and screens at 07:00, filmed until 15:30. Edit until 23:00 then go to bed while it all uploads. Now got to put them all away lol
