Mail Trains Dvd: Part 2, 1999-2002

Description

Amateur footage.

Mail Trains Volume Two depicts the changing face of the parcels and travelling post office sector across the UK.

With the new EWS Class 67s being introduced, 1999 was to be the last year of Class 47 dominance on mail trains.

EWS was now in full control of operations which led to some interesting and varied workings.

Including: An SNCF Class 90, Mainline Class 73, GNER Class 90, Railfreight Class 90s, EWS Class 47s, 67s, 86s and 90s, plus RES Class 47s, 86s and 90s.

Many locations feature including: Doncaster, Swindon, Stafford, Newport, Derby, Willesden, Norton Bridge and more!

With loco hauled mail trains ceasing operation in 2003, this double DVD depicts quite possibly the widest variety of traction that could still be seen working parcel and TPO services in the final years of operation.

Approx. 120 minutes.
