Description
A couple of East London BR vids in one here. We start at Manor Park on 16 April and see the final run of BR's class 40 122 storming through on its way to Norwich. Also seen is a class 47 hauled Inter-City working to Harwich (the wires were up to Norwich but Harwich was still on going) and some nice NSE units-309, 312 & 315. Next up on 30 April is another visit to Woodgrange Park to see another railtour, a pair of 20's heading to the LTS lines. 20's were new to the East End at Devons Road, Bow which was an LMR depot rather than an Eastern one. A couple of freights pass by as do two DMU's, one of which is a bubble car! Once Old Oak Common became responsible for the stock on the Gospel Oak line it did happen on odd occasions, as seen here. All in all, some nice classic traction in action. If you liked the video please subscribe to my channel, there are lots more transport & quirky vids to upload!
