BR in the 1990s Gravesend Station on 4th & 12th April 1991
Gravesend Station on 4th & 12th April 1991
Continuing with my archive of video recording between the years of 1986 to 2001 this clip is of Gravesend Station taken over 2 days in April 1991 and features classic old 1963 and 1953/57 EMU stock. Also as the channel tunnel construction was well under way a nice flow of aggregate traffic is seen passing through hauled by class 33s and 56s and one of my first glimpses of a class 60. 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.
