London Paddington to Reading Cab View
On Board a Class 117 DMU in the Summer of 1988
Continuing with my archive of video recording between the years of 1986 to 2001 this clip is of another Nick Winfield cab view from London Paddington to Reading on board a class 117 DMU taken in the summer of 1988. This video wraps it up for the 1980s unless I discover more in my archive. 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.
