BRITISH RAILWAYS IN THE 1980's
READING STATION on 18/05/1988
Continuing with my archive of video recording between the years of 1986 to 2001 this clip is of Reading Station, filmed from the newly built multi storey car park taken on 18th May 1988. When there were still plenty of class 50's on Padd Oxford/Newbury services and 47's on cross country trains and even the odd class 50. Look out for the Meldon Quarry trains hauled by class 33's and the Tonbridge Vans with a 33. 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.
