  • Which route did the Scarbrough - Glasgow service take? Did it run round at york?

  • Yeah, it reversed at york. 40 185 took over from 40 124 on this occassion.

  • Imagine how busy Scarborough station was back then to require 2 shunters on station pilot duties.

    I don't remember 40's on this working often. Eastfield no-heat duffs a plenty, and pairs of 20s on the York-Scarborough leg sometimes. 2 whistlers!!!??? Do those Scottish holidaymakers know how lucky they were?

  • I was as withered as you are; the Glasgow-Scarborough was a fairly regular working in the early 80s but not by two 40s!

    By the way, I sell the full unedited footage we took on a 5 disc dvd. Let me know if interested (its on ebay too).

  • @aureol40012

    Do you have a copy of this DVD. Been looking for it on ebay. Also looking for ScotRail Diesels if you know where any videos are. Loved the Carlisle

    to Annan one. Loco haulage on this line from the early eighties my first love of trains.

  • @TheMudfinger Yes, it is on ebay now.

  • @aureol40012 class 40s look simular to 37s

  • Nice one! brings them old memories flowing right back!

  • Just think, Couldnt do that now!!!! Kids in the cab and is he goona light a fag at the end?

  • There is so much to value and reflect in this. The driver wi9th his bag hanging up in the cab, the HST in original colours at York and the 40s of course! I have had a few Class 37s on the long run from Glasgow to York and once had the then Gateshead God of 37250 in fresh blue paint from York to the seaside and back!
