a few shots at par station in the late 90s includes class 37 class 47 class 66 HSTs and DMUs most of the trains in the video are to do with the English China Clay
Interesting that the 66's were only pulling 19 clay wagons back then as were the 37.'s. Now they take 38 per train - 1140 tonnes up the steep gradient through the Luxylyan Valley. Were EWS just running in the engines!?
A great look back in time! Thank you!
Thank you. Not a problem, glad you liked it!
A very fantastic video great job
Although it's 17 years ago it's the railway's timeless endeavour to fulfil human needs that holds.
Great video if the clay at lostwithiel keep them coming if you have anymore
