Description
BRITISH RAILWAYS IN THE 1990's
WELCOME TO 1999
Norton Bridge Station (Staffs) on 12th March 1999
Upon heading North once again, this time for the S & C we popped into this rather little used station just North of Stafford. A rather miserable weather fell upon us with mist and cold. Still captured on tape was a good variety of traffic. Class 37s on the Birmingham International - North Wales and v.v. Many cross country services in the hands of class 86's or class 47's and one or two HST's. The station was served by a 4 car class 323. Here I also captured on film my very first class 66, which were introduced only a year earlier by EWS. Despite the gloomy weather the call was worth it.

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.
