Description
We start on the platform at Carlisle where 37413 is present in its new all grey livery. A couple of 87s pass on steel coils before we board our class 108 for all stations stop and 85-mile ride to Barrow. 16 signal boxes are recorded as well as numerous semaphore signal gantries; most of which have been removed. A rather bumpy ride recorded through a dirty window and a VHS camera which didn't have " steady shot" So much infrastructure has disappeared I thought it was worth downloading for you to watch.VHS tape no. 50
