Description

*Important: Produced by Videolines some years ago, the eight programmes in the Trainspotter's Notebook are now available again, exclusively from Videoscene.

The fifth volume in 'A Train Spotter’s Notebook' series covers the North East from Manchester to Edinburgh and down to Retford. The route across the Pennines via Barnard Castle and Bowes with steam hauled service trains is explored along with scenes at Kirkby Stephen East, West and Junction and the viaducts at Lartington and Belah. A trip is taken by DMU on the last day of the Middleton in Teesdale service. Filmed from 1962, all types of trains from freight to express passenger, the majority of which are lineside shots, are depicted. Included are a few enthusiasts specials with some interesting locomotives and some depot scenes. Classes filmed include various Midland and Standard types along with WDs, A4, A3, A2/3, A1, V2, V3, B1, B16, B16/2, B16/3, K1, K3, J21, J27, J72, J94, Q6, Q7, 01, 02, 04/7, 04/8 and ES1.

All scenes have been digitally enhanced to improve picture quality and sound tracks added as accurately as possible. The informative narration is designed to minimise intrusion of the locomotive sound tracks and captions added where appropriate.
