An hour at Llandudno Junction 27th June 2024
Whilst waiting for the passing of the "Three Peaks special", and despite poor lighting and blustery conditions, I managed to capture a variety of traction between 20:15 and 21:15, culminating in the departure of 47 593 "Galloway Princess" and 57 311 on its journey to Bangor.

The video begins with a shot of one on the CP Class 9600 units which is seen entering Oronhe station on the Vouga line en route from Sernada do Vouga to Aveiro. This is the last meter gauge line in Portugal which is still run by CP. We then arrive at Aveiro to see around 30 minutes of action at this station where the meter gauge line interchanges with the Iberian gauge main line.

Railfanning in New Mexico Part 2 March 2006
Worked at Shirebrook as a guard in the 70s good times, Even in the slurry and rain in Clipstone loaded sidings!
Judging by the diesel exhaust smoke belching out, no DPF filters seem to be fitted and how polluting are these locomotives? 🤔
You make an interesting point. All I can tell you is that as of now, they are compliant in the UK in terms of exhaust emissions. However its likely to change.
Long may the clag continue

A great video Phil, have a nice weekend :)
Thanks Simon. 😊
Nice to see you back 👍
After a long pause, the "Fun factory " is back in production! 😁
@@PhilThomasTrains Glad to hear it 😉
Tanker trains are awesome
Awesome catches & tanker trains
Thank you very much!
Cool tanker train
Love that tanker train
The class 155 caught at 4:00 is actually a pretty rare shot. They only worked in North Wales in 1988/89 and few photos would have been recorded as they were ''new'' and ''probably be around for decades''. Not so!
Happy days
An excellent video Phil, those were the good days at Crewe. Have you any recordings at Crewe in the mid 80s ?
That's all I have I'm afraid.
@@PhilThomasTrains no probs, some good locos there making an appearance on the Crewe to Cardiff service.

Great catches & tanker trains
Cool catches & tanker train
Great video, shame it’s lost some of its clarity.
Thank you for sharing.
Interesting way of switching (shunting) cars using gravity. I had never seen that before. Fascinating video.
Do those green shunter things still run there
1 man, remote control train crews----ridiculous and unsafe. The shot of the fella riding point on the BOF completely full, slag load is absurd......
Hi! Thank you for recording precious moments about Chengde Steelwork Branch. I am a rail-fan in Chengde, China. I am very appreciated your work. Could I use this video as a part of my film of "Beijing-Chengde" Railway? I would enclose the original UA-cam link while writing your name in my film. Best wishes, SkyUniverse
Yes that's fine. Just please credit my channel and link as well. I would be more than happy to share.
@@PhilThomasTrains Sure. Thanks a lot for your support! Thanks for your precious recording.😀
Good stuff
Nice to see you back on the tools
Awesome catches! Love that tanker train
Great coverage,
Awsome😊
I remember many times travelling from Slough to Manchester via Oxford. The class 47 would be swapped out and a Class 86 marshalled onto the front.
Waxing nostalgic here at about 45 to 47 minutes, a coal train from now defunct Kansas City Power & Light, my ex employer, and a great one at that. Those cars were jointly owned with Kansas Gas & Electric. They were headed back out to the Powder River basin to load up with coal for use at the joint KCPL/KGE coal fired generating station at La Cygne, Kansas. Nice scenery in that part of Nebraska.
Beautiful Conwy ❤
Cool catches, those tanker trains are neat
Just espied this vid! Oh, those were the days. We were on the last run and it was a carnival atmosphere. Reckon they got every detonator out of the units and depot stores and disposed of them on the line between Manchester and Bury! Talk about going out with a bang! Everyone emerged from the train at Bolton Street wreathed in gun powder smoke! Still got the ticket somewhere. Next day a couple of units were seen trundling up and down the ELR towed by a diesel.
This is absolutely amazing and mind-blowingly valuable footage!!!
I have to repeat my joy of watching this superb record of Cornish freight ,preserved on film , thank you.
Superb memories ,😊
Nice video:)
Уже вижу, что это ЗАМЕЧАТЕЛЬНЫЙ сюжет про грузовые и пассажирские поезда. КЛАССНО _!!! _🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃_ . От Рэя Иванова 💙🧢🚆.
there is a lot scenes in this that if you did today you would be probably shouted at for trespassing on the railway line lol
This is a great reference for freight and mgr modellers. Thanks for posting. Oh what if they had camera capabilities and clarity of today!
Nice to see the SD70MAC'S doing their thing on the buckets.
Great video.
Great video.
This brought back many memories I was a fireman out of eastfield traction depot springburn Glasgow drove many 37s from queen st to Oban on the west highland line and class 27 push & pull queen st to Waverley Edinburgh 1974
Magnificent....turn them speakers up ❤❤❤❤
