Very good indeed! Parcels traffic - now there's a memory if ever there was one! Had to chuckle at the driver of the 08 giving it everything in the sunshine, was almost as if the film had been speeded up. Wonder if you could still stop late and film there now..............
Nice! Does anyone have any idea who the clear voice belongs to in the announcements, clearest at 1.02? I remember that the same woman's voice did announcements at Wakefield Westgate too, before they switched to the unclear random ones. :)

I had the Orient Express from Derby to Leeds via Doncaster and Gas Wood. Then ECS back to Crewe via Batley, Huddersfield, and Stockport.
With stops at Sheffield and Donny.
The engine was a Class 47 Prince William, the CS was old Pullman coaches made by BRCW.
After Leeds I rode on the engine to Dewsbury and bailed out for a taxi back to the Mill.
All the coach doors were obstructed by crates of empty wine bottles and rubbish.
That night it was raining cats and dogs.
