I was only 4 then but trains back in this era were amazing, so unique and had character. Rail now looks the same.

Fantastic. I travelled behind many a 50 between Leamington Spa and Birmingham New Street and Paddington. Great engines especially when opened up between London and Paddington. The 1980s were great for train spotting unlike today where there is little variety.

Very enjoyable video to watch. Thanks for posting! Brings back so many nice trainspotting memories. I always enjoyed when some drivers would let you into the cab whilst in the station.

That was one filthy train towards the end. I remember London is the 80s as a child. It's amazing how filthy the place was and how dirty everything was,not just trains. It a national embarrassment that a train got that filthy-the Japanese wouldn't have had it then or now.

This is 1 of the best vids I have seen stuff happening and a variety of trains its great. It just so happens I am modelling the early 80s so I am bias but still there is a lot going on and the filming is quite good too; well done.

No locos at the Ranelegh Bridge stabling point I see.. I gave up spottong in 1981.. can't see why anybody does it nowadays, there is absolutely nothing to look at except a ceaseless hegemony of banal multiple units in garish lollipop-liveries. The triumph of further uniformity and profit-driven consolidation. No wonder the heritage railways are booming eh?

1st class was placed away from the engine noise so not as bad as it seems.
