Description
A short-ish BR vid now showing a line that's now in the news. Back in May 1993 BR was about to mothball a section of the former Varsity Line between Claydon Junction and Bletchley. Hertfordshire Railtours ran a tour 'The Mothball' to run over it one last time. We see this class 56 hauled tour at Winslow and then some action at Bletchley with bubble car DMU's, a class 08 shunting withdrawn Anglia EMU stock, with shots of freight trains & Inter-City workings passing by. Classes seen are 08, 31, 47, 56, 90 & DMU. If you liked the video please subscribe to my channel, there are lots more transport & quirky vids to upload!
