A preview of "South Yorkshire Rail - Past & Present" - NDVD1010 from Nova Home Video - available now from Nova Store - http://www.novastore.co.uk.
Through the years, South Yorkshire has been an important county for enthusiasts, with the East Coast Main Line through Doncaster, a wide variety of local passenger services, Sheffield's cross-country steam and electrics and the seemingly never-ending freight traffic.
This DVD looks at rail scene in South Yorkshire from the heydays of steam in the 1960's, through the BR blue diesel era of the 70's and 80's, the pre-privatisation years of the 90's, through to the present day.
Produced using material from the Nova library, specifically filmed present day scenes and exclusive never-before-seen archive cine film, this DVD shows just how much the South Yorkshire rail scene has changed in 4 decades.

5690 'Leander' not 5890, an easy mistake but worth pointing out. Other than that an interesting film.

@cefnonn If you had to travel on the CL 141/142/143 foisted on BR,then the CL101 etc would most definetely be "beloved" Agree otherwise,a good clip!

I think it's going a bit far to call the cl 101's "beloved"!
Lovely archive film. Cool!
