BR in the 1990s Eastleigh Station on 4th February 1998
Eastleigh Station on 4th February 1998
Welcome to 1998
Continuing with my archive of video recording between the years of 1986 to 2001 this clip is of Eastleigh taken on 04/02/1998 seen from the south end of the station. This visit was a bit of a test recording as I was trying out a new broadcast camera that I had for a couple of months. The audio may at times have been set too high and the colour balance was a little awkward as it was getting dark, so needed constant attention. A very busy scene with HSTs, class 47s and a mainline liveried class 58. A couple of shunters are seen and a few arriving aeroplanes from Guernsey and Jersey thrown in as well. 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.
The footage includes HSTs, Class 47s, and a mainline liveried Class 58, along with some shunters. The recording was made using a new broadcast camera, which led to some technical challenges in audio and colour balance. Additional scenes of arriving aeroplanes from Guernsey and Jersey are also included. The video provides a nostalgic look at British Railways during the late 1990s.
