Excellent stuff...thanks for putting these on. Don't recall ever seeing the first episode - but I was only five at the time. I always liked the stories with Masterspy in, even though I found him rather scary at the time! Bought a vhs video in the early 90s with three stories on - the final one be...

This has to be one of the best singles from 1981.

This is the first time I've heard this track fully, i.e. with end effect, and it sounds even better than it did thirty years ago. Really sharp melodic guitar, good bass - not too overpowering, and minor keyboard wizardy. Should have done better than no.22 in the charts. 1981 saw some really origi...

In the words of the maestro"Evening Keith ...how you doing...well on the show today between three and five along came Billy Preston with the one called.....Outer Space".

Back to reality - thanks for the links, haven't actually tried either of 'em yet tbh. There's a chap on the one of the AF youtu...

Clarkson's comments show just what a crass & ignorant person he really is! There is a way to respond - boycott permanently all his products, events which he attends, and Top Gear programme. ( how the BBC can justify licence-payers money producing such rubbish -which ceased to be about motoring ma...

That crowded cabin scene is just PURE GENIUS!!

Jeff Lynne must have been one of the most creative songwriters of the 60s, easily on a par with Lennon & McCartney, to come up with such a simple yet cathcy song about a man being evicted from his home! I must try and get these cd compilations. Many thanks to both elofan and Sids for putting the...

An amzing song Ian! Like "Bengerman" I've also heard this on SOTS on Radio2 (twice within three years). Don't recall it in '69 though. Would I be right in thinking that you werein the Outer Limits line-up that recorded the terrific "Just One More Chance" in'67 - that particular song has stuck wit...

Thanks of putting this on here. What was the other track featured on the prog (never been able to find this out!). Apparently the studio was so small that featured bands used to record tracks in advance and "play" in front of camera - viz. The Who and Relay for example. Strange how the recent Rad...

Very interesting indeed! A pity it was a bit short - still we can't have everything! I have always wanted to hear a demo/rough studio take of California Man, does one exist on here? Thanks for making this available for folks to enjoy.

I would like to have seen the cause of the friction between the two. Was the driver black and was it a case of two cultures clashing? What was the outcome of it all, please? I have worked for two different public sector companies and Joe Public can get away with virtually anything now, Heaven hel...

Great stuff Carl! Is it my imagination or do the turbochargers sound different from those on preserved examples?

Have the combustion problems been solved since then may I ask?

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..............

@MrDavros1234 Evening MK! Went to Cudworth North Junct last Saturday to see the Pathfinder "Jorvic Explorer" - haulage was with 66 024 and '065, with a multi-coloured rake of Mk i and Mk 2 opens. was talking to a Network Rail guy there and apparently the sand train only runs on tuesday and Thurs...

@11xzxzxz What about "Rock Down Low" then?? Have you listened to Dance Round the Maypole by Acid Gallery, an RW song with Roy & Jeff on backing vocals & production. Great stuff - enjoy!!

@SeanOBriain Evening sean. Sorry to hear of your woes - whereabouts do you live btw? I'm just about to watch that BBC1 programme about Romany children begging - should be interesting............

Some excellent stuff there - even the brand-new Brush 4 with four double arrow symbols plus BR containers (as opposed to the toothpaste box liveried ones of later years!). The Britannia and Black Five in all their grime and splendour too! Many thanks. Oh that I could see footage of my local area ...

Evening Mk again! Just seen this and more strange stuff - especially the cl.142 ! Re. your correspondence with Baconsandwich, surely most this route just HAS to be used for the HST2 link to Leeds - it would make economic sense, even allowing for bridge replacements at Cudworth and Royston, finger...

What utter rubbish!!!

More amazing footage Mr PB! Everywhere just seems to hundreds of pieces of metal piled up - would love to see an actual track plan, bet there's more sidings there hidden away -lol! I presume they don't allow enthusiasts around, judging by the alastian!Are you an HUFC fan - if so good to see 'em d...

Thanks MR PB. Thomson must get through some stock if they have two locos.! I must look at your other clips as well. Are you any good at recognising/identifying industrial locos btw? I have some prints which will be going on my website in the near future which i am stumped as to the details.........

Great compilation. What Fluff would make of Tony Blackburn and his juvenile ramblings I shudder to think!! Don't think I've heard of a clip of Fluff saying "I'll tell you what......." which to me ranks as one of his best sayings - not arf!

Alright.......right............stay bright.........tara! Just listened to the Radio2 documentary about POTP - great stuff with some very interesting facts! Fluff has to be the greatest dj ever, god bless you Alan.

Extremely interesting stuff dd! These "minor" workings are far more important than any ECML or WCML freight IMO. Surely the train crew should have checked the sandboxes first before setting out laden! This scenario would be ideal for a layout at an exhibition too. I'm looking for footage of the s...

As Del Boy would have said to the cameraman - "Brace yourself Rodney!!!"

I will always the remember the classic Sulzer 6-cylinder sound, think they sound even better then just ticking over too - can understand the comment about them "snorting" as one correspondent put it! My Bachmann Class 24 is missing some handrails - anyone know of such spares being sold? Thanks in...

I've had this complete video many years now and living in Barnsley it makes sad viewing whenever I drive through Worsbrough. The trees have been allowed to take over and it's become a haven for the off-road bike idiots brigade. Have been puzzled when this vid was made - August (77?) as Mitchells ...

Just seen this for the first time - and I'm simply amazed at the attitude of the underground staff - are both still employed? Those two belong as stewards at a football ground, where their people-handling skills would be acceptable! It seems that transport enthusiasts are now fair game for such ...

More top stuff again Mr A. I'm running out of superlatives! A shame the rasping exhaust sound of the dmu was drowned out. 40152 was one of Healey Mills stalwarts for many years and I can remember seeing her in filthy green at royston shed ( my local as it were!). I must get the Hornby Railroad mo...

More great stuff Mr A. Love the final bit where she starts from rest and that Suzler 12 cylinder working hard sound will live with me forever. Shame about the moron flicking the Vs! Are you invovled with the CFA by any chance?

More superb stuff Mr A. I had to grimace when I saw the tight clearance between the VDA and the loco in the shunting part! Presumably this wasn't MOD property you were stood on for this section.. That wall (or whatever its was) is just at the right height too! Again the weathering on the cab show...

This is really excellent stuff Mr A. - you obviously had top-of the range equipment at the time - ever thought of producing them commercially on dvd?? Was nice to see 37s before they were altered so much with all the modifications and new numbers. The weathering on the 56 isa treat to look at. I ...
