Description
Another of my early vids now taken back in the Winter of 1985. This shows Leicester with all its lovely Semaphore signalling and views of Leicester North box with the PSB which was to replace it seen in the background. At Loughborough the box there was still open then although with colour light signalling. A lot of BR blue traction to be seen in this vid, classes 20, 25, 31 & 56 along with HST's in original colours as well as the 'new' Inter-City Executive livery and various mix & matches. If you liked the video please subscribe to my channel, there are lots more transport & quirky vids to upload!
