The North Wales Coast Main Line: Crewe - Holyhead
Penmaenbach
We hear the wonderful noise from her twin Maybach V12s as Class 52 'Western' diesel-hydraulic D1015 Western Champion passes Penmaenbach at speed heading the Ealing Broadway - Holyhead 'Irish Mail' charter on 16th February 2008. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETDhDaPDJ2w
Bangor Station
A visit to Bangor Station on the North Wales Coast Main Line on the 16th September 2016 where we see Arriva Class 175/0 and Class 158 DMUs in action. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UiY5hlKtQM
Holyhead
Was this the first Class 52 'Western' to reach Holyhead? Climbing the 1 in 75 gradient out of Holyhead Station, Class 52 'Western' D1015 Western Champion makes a magnificent ascent of the bank as she heads the 1515 Holyhead - Ealing Broadway 'Irish Mail' charter on 16th February 2008. Hard to believe that this was almost 10 years ago! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLMDLq68x6Q
