BRITISH RAILWAYS IN THE 1990's
Blackpool North Station on 31st May 1994
Plus Blackpool Trams
Continuing with my archive of video recording between the years of 1986 to 2001 this clip is of Blackpool North on 31/05/1994. With the famous Tower in the background, on this visit I video'd the 3 morning daily departures which were Loco hauled. A real blast from the past. It was like returning to the 1970s. 2 of the trains were class 31 hauled but one was class 37/4 hauled. These trains went by the name of the "Club" trains as far as I recall and went to Manchester, Southport, and If I remember correctly Liverpool. If you know different let me know. I hope the video takes you back to this period with fond memories. Feel free to comment, good or bad, all comments are read and greatly appreciated, but it is not always possible to answer each individually. Sit back and enjoy this latest production remembering all those now long gone Locomotive classes and other types of traction. Many thanks for all subscriptions and all of those viewers who have kindly shown an interest in my material. A bonus at the end of the video covers a brief look at the trams that were running in late May of that year.
