Great vid! The 'Grid' looked superb in red stripe although I was a little concerned about all the blue clag coming off it. Suppose thats a bit of a 56 trademark really. The sound certainly ticked all the boxes, the screaming was superb on load six plus 60, 66 and 67 dead in tow.
Thanks Bob, since filming 56040 on Friday I became curious to know how it actually came to be named Oystermouth.. The class 56 Group website answered all my questions! What a wonderful resource the internet is! ..Best regards Peter
Could have told you that :o)...being Welsh and I can see the Gower Peninsular from the house..Must dig out some photos and send them to the group...all the best..Bob
