1970s - East Coast Main Line

This video captures footage from the East Coast Main Line in the late 1970s, showcasing the variety of train traction available at the time. It features Deltic locomotives, which were nearing the end of their service life and had largely been replaced by HST sets on main line services. However, some Deltics were still in use on semi-fast services, with three examples seen at Barkston Junction. The footage highlights the transition in railway technology during this period.
