East Lancs is a real friendly Heritage Line. A few years ago they held a Carboot sale. I wandered into the shed and maintenance area with a friend and his children and the let us look around the shed on of the volunteers explaining about the work they were doing. Thank great video.

Thanks Richard.

1:59 3 tracks 3 preserved diesels and all working at the same time. Wow!

I like all the Diesel locos coming in & going out of the the station on the East Lancashire Railway. Ian Thompson.

Total blast from the not too distant past, class 47 scotrail loco pulling a rake of coaches.

Who's that massively handsome chap leaning out of middle door of first coach at 8:13 ? Oh, apparently it's me

Excellent vid Phil well filmed the Warship and the 14 were the highlight of the day for me.I'm at 2140 running up to the gate in the car park cheers Steve ..

Phil Clarke no problem and we love our job

So they had many diesels running,but no 40 or 37,which the ELR has like 5 to choose from

Excellent video Phil. You got me at 11.51 camera pressed to my eye and woolly hat. I think we spoke to each other as we waited to film the 50 leaving. Did you ask me what the yellow fronted loco was about to leave the yard in the distance? I you watch my video again of the 50 it is identical to yours.

Thanks Philip. Haha, comparing our videos, I guessed that must be you at 11:51. I remember being stood next to you waiting for the 50 to leave, but don't think it was me that asked that. Although I noticed you a few times during the day and sure we spoke at some stage.

Even electric trains have to get power from somewhere . . . .

A nicer day for it than today, I bet. The signalman there must be kept very busy mustn't he, there's locos shunting back and forth and up and down and round and round all the time.

Alot nicer Andrei. The river looked quite calm at Ramsbottom, hard to beleive the difference in such a short time?

What No 40's !!!! ? Think East Lancs Railway and Diesel fans think Class 40's, a bit amazed there wasn't any, how come - anybody know ?

that 25 needs some cosmetic TLC

I'm surprised if they can make enough money to cover cost of running diesel gala on a Friday when many people are working , I wish they would paint 47402 to blue again really don't like the green livery , great video btw
