Loco Haulage 2004

18th March 2004 to 26th May 2004

A look at the sadly disappearing world of loco haulage - starting with some lineside shots in North Wales at Prestatyn in the last weeks of the 47s on the Crewe to Holyhead and return ... Last ever FNW Manchester Picc to Holyhead diesel hauled service - last ever diesel hauled train from Man Picc to Blackpol plus much more to come......This year will see the end of the Class 47 on regular passenger services - get them while you can, soon they wil be just history!

Now added the South Wales 37's
