Greater Anglia Class 90s - 90010

Channel: Stoat13

Description
Locomotive hauled passenger trains on the Great Eastern Main Line between London and Norwich (Thorpe) ended after 169 years without any ceremony on 25th March 2020. This is my tribute to the last generation of loco hauled services which were formed of rakes of eight or nine [toward the end seven or eight] Mk.3 coaches sandwiched between a Class 90 locomotive at the London end and a Driving Van Trailer [DVT] of the 821xx series at the Norwich end of the train. These trains had replaced the previous generation of Great Eastern loco hauled services from 2004. This stock had previously worked on the West Coast Main Line between London Euston and Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester and Glasgow, originally under British Rail ownership and then with Virgin West Coast after privatisation.

Most of the video is mobile phone footage.

On 17th December 2015 90010 is seen waiting for its next service to Liverpool St at Norwich.

On 14th June 2017, 68027 is seen passing Stratford, light engine, when 90010 propels its train from Liverpool St to Norwich past.

On 3rd January 2018, 90010 is seen waiting at Colchester with a train from Liverpool St to Norwich while 90015 passes with a train from Norwich to Liverpool St.

On 2nd April 2019 90010 is seen passing Romford with a train from Liverpool St to Norwich.
