Great video 😎👍🏽 Reminds me of 36 years ago today..Wednesday 25th July 1984, after a whole days spotting on Birmingham New Street, we got the late running 1V92 13:20 Glasgow-Swansea back home to South Wales behind 50035 “Ark Royal” - 86256 “Pebble Mill” hastily gave way to 50035 as the service was 55 late. We had a very spirited run back to Wales with “Ark Royal” via Gloucester and Chepstow and we managed to gain 10 minutes back by Cardiff 😀👍🏽🎉🎉 I loved the 50’s, temperamental machines, but when driven by a driver that knew how to handle them properly, they were fantastic power houses 😀👍🏽🎉
