- This is a compilation video of Class 87s in action on the main line, filmed between 1988 and 1991.
[All photos used in the opening sequence and the background music were taken/ written/ played by me.]
What a nice locomotive
Love the 86s' and 87s', the first electric locos that I travelled on from Crewe to London.
Class 86 compilation still to come once I’ve edited it. Glad you enjoyed this one. Thanks for commenting. 😊👍
Great video
Identifying location,date and loco makes it so much more interesting.
Well done thanks.
Thanks Howard, for watching and commenting. Fortunately, back in 1987 when I started videoing, I had the foresight to write-up every trip out and all the loco numbers, although I didn’t bother with many of the Unit numbers sadly. Just as well, as the numbers aren’t always clearly visible in the Standard Definition video of the time. Sometimes my notes have been inaccurate,, but viewers have kindly pointed this out in the comments (e.g. ‘“can’t be 47 xxx because it was never in that livery etc etc.”) and I’ve been able to correct things in a new uploaded version. Cheers, Geoff.
That's an impressive van train at the end!
Love the 87s
Excellent video, brings back memories 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
