FORTHCOMING RELEASE…

TRACTION 2009 Part 2 

The next installment in this popular and long-running series is shaping up well. Very well….except for the fact that we are struggling to get the programme down to 100 minutes! The six month period from July to December 2009 saw some remarkable workings and traction developments, many of which will feature in this forthcoming programme. Among the workings you can expect to see are…..31 190 on the Boston steel, 47 802 on the Chirk timber, D1015 heading to Scarborough and Blaneau Ffestiniog….and then hauling redundant china clay tanks from Quidhampton to Burngullow, 56 311 towing three Bulgaria-bound Class 87s and 86 401 from Long Marston to Crewe, Virgin Class 57s hauling Class 508 EMU’s to Eastleigh Works, 20 189 + 20 227 on hire to GBRf delivering new London Underground S stock from Old Dalby to Neasden, 92 017 in Stobart livery, six scrap DBS Class 56s being towed from Ferrybridge to Crewe, 73 107 returns to the main line, 37 401 + 37 670 venture to Weymouth for FGW,  20 306 bonnet first towing a coach from Southampton Docks to Eastleigh Works, 66 844 on the Bromley North branch, 47 727 + 47 739 on the Tilbury to Burton Cemex tanks, 87 701 + 87 702 on hire to GB Railfreight for charter and mail trains, ‘mix & match’ Class 47 haulage on Colas traffic from Dollands Moor to Burton and Dagenham, DRS Class 37s and 47s on the temporary Workington-Maryport passenger shuttles, 20 302 on the West Highland Line heading for Oban, 47 270 returns to the main line for Hanson Traction, DB Schenker decimate their Class 60 fleet….and Advenza Freight go bust. And that’s just a taster of what’s in store! We hope to have programme 29 in the Traction series available towards the end of February.

VHS TAPES. . . .

As demand for VHS is now minimal, we have deleted all our titles on tape which are now available on DVD. Please note that none of the TRACTION series are available on VHS, the early years having been covered in our TRACTION DECADE DVD. We only have limited stocks of the older VHS-only programmes so you may wish to contact us first regarding availability before placing an order. Please note that due to the massive increase in Royal Mail postage costs for items of this size and weight there is an additional postage & packing charge of £1 per tape. Thus the total cost of a VHS tape is £17.95.
