I remember the early 60s as school kids walking around in organised groups, but no H&S, just lovely steam and diesel locos and wonderful smells. I don't recall anyone not returning from those wonderful adventures.
wow Kev you really do get yourself into some cracking places , this was a fantastic video i really enjoyed watching it . Thanx for sharing mate ...excellent cheers SYD
It's a promotional livery on a GBRf loco for a contract they have with maritime intermodal. The same livery is on 5 DB Cargo 66s as well, as they were the previous operators of the contract.
@@davideddy5877 The thing is, that GBRf loco isn't even an official job by the look of it. Not the right font. I must admit I don't mind the Colas livery too much (though I think we're not getting a bit samey with the new Freightliner look - I preferred the original sea green). I agree with you, though, Grand Central is probably my favourite livery right now.

Another brilliant video! I really enjoyed this :)
They seem to have no real use for 59003 as its like having Samson to carry Grans shopping bag.
Brilliant filming zoom quality awesome can you advise the equipment you use please
I use a Panasonic HC-VXF1 camcorder
great vid. Dont arf show the state of the track on the long shots ..
where did you go to film these? (yes i know eastleigh) but where exactly, i would like to see more VP185s
Just down the road. Turn left out of station and a 5 min walk
@@swearingkevo thanks so much!
I like that Maritime blue. 66727
That must have taken most of the day. Apart from anything else that is a lot of walking to film from all those vantage points :)
Is the Maritime company just anopther freight hauling group please?

Who the hell did that 'Railfreight' decal on the 73 at 2.10? Looks like it was done with a kid's stencilling kit in Times New Roman!
I think the Colasfreight colour scheme is just the ugliest around. Same kid was the design consultant. Grand Central is the best, I think.
