Visit to Crewe in Cheshire

Location 1
Crewe DRS Gresty Bridge Depot

Crewe Gresty Bridge TMD (formally, Crewe Gresty Lane TMD)[1][2] is a Traction maintenance depot in Crewe, Cheshire, England. The depot is located to the South of Crewe station on the start of the line to Shrewsbury, over the road from the entrance to Crewe Basford Hall


Location 2
Crewe Carriage Sidings

Crewe C.S." refers to Crewe Carriage Sidings, a significant railway stabling and maintenance depot on the West Coast Main Line

Looks like the DRS class 68 has an uncertain future ahead. Few taken out of service and some are supplying donor parts.. hence video of them starting to stable up along side the DRS depot, most are unbranded and waiting for their faith !!

While in the area fly over the crewe Carriage Sidings which was interesting from the sky !!

Thanks for watching the Arthur Growler YouTube Channel ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ‘
