Great vid Warren. I never knew 036s large logo was there even after the 'dutch' repaint!

The crossing siren sounds like a man playing the bagpipes. :-)

@MickeyLove01 Crossing is still there but the land is now owned by the mersey docks and harbour board so they closed either end of the road off,only way to get to it now is to go through a security gate on Strand road,60's now run across this road as I deal with a company on the site and see one most times Iam down there

56 036 was the first loco to receive the large logo livery. It was initially allocated to Toton but came down to Cardiff Canton soon after the repaint. I remember seeing it on the Port Talbot - Llanwern iron ore, which was at the time the heaviest train on BR. It was an impressive sight but, for me, the triple headed 'dirty 37s' were far more 'nasty'.

now that is tight!
Does this service still operate?
-
Thats different! The radius on that curve seems tight, or is it the camera angle? Nice vid though !

Thanks :)
Would that have just loaded up with coal, or is it taking coal to the docks?
