BR in the 1990s Arpley Railway Yard and Warrington Bank Quay WCML on 17th September 1993
Arpley Railway Yard and Warrington Bank Quay (WCML) on 17th September 1993
Continuing with my archive of video recording between the years of 1986 to 2001 this clip is of Arpley Railway Yard and Warrington Bank Quay (WCML) taken on 17/09/1993. The WCML seemed busy at this early time of day with several through freight services and a few passenger trains. The yard itself seemed very still apart from a couple of locomotive movements. I 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.
It features British Railways locomotives, including classes 37, 60, 82, and 87, operating during a period of transition in the railway network. The footage shows freight services and passenger trains running through the area, with some activity observed within the yard. While no specific headcodes are identified, the video provides a historical glimpse into railway operations from the early 1990s.
