What a fantastic video!! I love seeing any loco being given a good old shoeing, your video not only captures that but its quality is superb, the organisation and editing is top notch and the spread of different types/classes is grade A. Thank you for putting this together, you just got yourself a new subscriber.

True, more freight needs to be moved by electric trains but unfortunately, the Government scrapped the 'Electric Spine' project, meaning that it will still be mainly 66s and 70s for now!

How does a driver know that he/she can run at these top speeds? Before setting off from the yard, by direct cab communication, something signals tell him/her?
@ACETrainsUK
4 жыл бұрын
They usually have a train ID code (e.g. 4M65), and the first number of the code normally tells them how fast they can go (3 = 90mph, 4 = 75mph, 6 = 60mph, 7 = 45mph, 8 = 30mph).
