love the video.I just wished you could have included its future traffic, containers from immingham to liverpool, HGV on flats from channel tunnel to Trafford park, Local EMU service Sheffield vic.-MCR airport. I really hope this happens..It must be cheaper than Sheffield airport (now de-functed) what a waste of millions..this route is needed now!!
Just wish it was now & I was on the excursion train:-)))

Shame it's not real! I used to run Eurostar sets from Piccadilly to Paris via the Great Central myself. If only.

@Trainbuff2008 Get yourself down to Manchester Science Museum. There's a Class 76 cab complete with controls and switch gear for you to have a go on.
