- Especially for tpe18509 - recorded before I got my external microphone this is a full version of recordings made on 28 April 2004 at Morpeth Station and finishing with a few photos of the station and wall tile map - the regal GNER colour scheme at its best before all the sets had orange doors, units going on to and coming off the sidings, HAA coal hoppers and a 60 on the empty steel
Another excellent slice of UK rail history . Many thanks for uploading
Great to see some shots of the old-fashioned pre-Mallard refit 225s!
@trainfart Thank you very much - much appreciated
@argenvia thank you much appreciated - yes there have been serious accidents in steam days and in Deltic days one of them being a sleeper train
Very fine video with many great shots! :)
@tpe18509 many thanks mate and no problem - glad you enjoyed it
A nice interlude film, thanks for bringing it to our attention. Some curve that! It will be good to run the film as background while doing something else. What a beautifully kept station.
Keep up the good work!

Fantastic , i really enjoyed this, thanks alot for uploadin this, liked and faved!
@itgamer100 many thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it
@melvilla1903 Many thanks Roger - yes I believe the curve is the tighest radius on the UK railway network with TPWS speed control - also jointed rails had to be retained rather than continously welded rail due to the risk of the rail buckling sideways with hot/cold temperature expansion/contraction. I don't know if this is still the case with todays modern technology
Ph thus brings back memories. Seeing the Virgin Voyager and the GNER Class 91 was areal blast from the past. And then a pacer turned up 🤣🤢
@skodatrainz many thanks mate :)

Curve 50 is with caution that was led by two trains that derailed deltic?? trains were bed
