A number of websites have provided me with substantial
amounts of information regarding Class 25 locomotives or passenger train
workings from this era. I highly recommend the following sites for
your further research or enjoyment.

1980's

Simply the best source of information
regarding locomotive workings from the 70's and 80's - go there and add
yours before you lose them! |
|
Six Bells
Junction |
Claimed to be "Probably the largest
source of railtour gen...anywhere on the planet!" and essential reading
for anything other than scheduled trains |
|
Dreadful! |
Some
things that bashing is, or more accurately was - get a feel for what it
was in the 80's, pure nostalgia, even if there are a few too many
references to Class 40s! |

Electric locos - I loved them
on the many West Coast 'overnights' I had to do in my time. These are
well worth viewing for a more contemporary view. |
