BRITISH RAILWAYS IN THE 1990's
Reading Station (West End) on 18th February 1998
Continuing with my archive of video recording between the years of 1986 to 2001 this clip is yet another test on the broadcast camera set up. Living up to Reading's daily traffic on a Wednesday Afternoon. Filmed from the old cattle pens off the platform HST's and "Turbo's" are seen. A class 47 in the Porterbrook livery on an inter city train and "Deltic" D9000 arrived from Birmingham with a cross country service. Very sadly I missed the departure 1M79, the 16.47 to Liverpool Lime Street, as I foolishly ran out of video, but I do 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.
