Here is a collection of clips showing some of the Vulcan Foundry's finest locos. The Vulcan Foundry was the home of English Electric who built many of the first generation diesels including:Class 15,20,31,37,40,50,55. The Vulcan Foundry also built many steam locos including a number of Black Five's amongst other steam locos. The Vulcan Foundry was located in Northwich and it opened in 1832 and closed in 1962.
brilliant footage especially of 55022 at the end accelerating through the tunnels.
take your fill of that lovely noise!.
