Preserved Railways in the 1990s West Somerset Railway on 17th March 1991
WSR on 17th March 1991
Continuing with my archive of video recording between the years of 1986 to 2001 this clip is of a visit I made to the delightful West Somerset Railway on 17/03/1991. Starting off at Minehead witnessing the first departure of the day with "Western Yeoman" after some shunting of stock, I moved along to Bishops Lydeard calling in at Blue Anchor, Williton and Crowcombe. The other locomotives featured were "Teddy Bear" class 14 D9551 and "Hymek" D7017. 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.
