Barb Bffffaaaaaarb :P

And yes, its low on air, explains the air pressure noise as it passes, Derek  :)

[StationEndGroup]

43366?

Is that not a AXC HST powercar?

5*

[StationEndGroup]

yes it is

[Danny55022]

then what is 366 doing on this serice in NXEC coulors?

[StationEndGroup]

just ran a check on it in our database - 43166 Midland Mainline Livery, Last Operater Cross Country - 43366 Current Operator Cross Country, Current Livery Cross Country.

[StationEndGroup]

I was just making sure

[Danny55022]

Fair dos.

[wellowvids]

My cockup! It was 43330!!!!! Will alter the video narrative!

[Megametro001]

I've just played the video on full screen and I think I spotted a nameplate on the rear power car in the video, so it could be 43300 "Craigentinny", as 43320 doesn't have a nameplate.

[wellowvids]

Thanks -you're right!! Checked back through my records and my crap handwriting - I had also videod them going in the other direction earlier with 43300 leading. That loco also features as 43100 in Intercity livery in my video at Clay Cross in 1997.

[wellowvids]

43100 also features in my "Valenta Music on the Lickey" video as well!!

[D335Media]

Release of pressure on the horn. Quite a lot of the early power cars did it due to bad pressure in the pipes anyway

[156499SuperSprinter]

Nothing to do with that... Just a simple horn when it goes past you makes it sound weird due to speed of movement...

[D335Media]

No that's Doppler effect which as wellow has commented on.

[wellowvids]

Don't think there was much Doppler effect - there's an air pressure noise as the trailing loco passes - has that any relevence?

[wellowvids]

Thanks mate!

[wellowvids]

Thanks - there's a few more to come (without 2tones) when I've put the video together!

That's a cracker, the powercars sound magnificent. The 2tone adds to the brilliance. Well captured.
