Description
Nick and I spent a morning on the "long gone" footbridge which gave access to Canton Depot. So many 37s passing through and some on their way to the depot for maintenance. For memories sake I've included the HST, their sound will always be remembered. In the distance you'll see a 37, on the Vale line, on it's way to collect more coal for Aberthaw.

The footage includes a High Speed Train (HST) and mentions a Class 37 on the Vale Line heading towards Aberthaw. The recording was made from a footbridge that has since been removed, offering a nostalgic view of railway operations from that era.
