steamsounds - from the lineside

1978 to 1996

Despite the fact that I spent most of my time in the 80s and early 90s riding behind steam on the main line, I still had time for a few lineside recordings.
The first track on this disk is of Scots Guardsman on one of its only two main line runs during its first appearance. Other notable recordings include the Midland Compound 1000 working a train single handed, lineside recordings on the S&C with 46203, 71000 & 5029 among others. The disk also has a few recordings from the West Highland line.
In total there are 27 tracks with a playing time of almost 80 minutes.

The CD comes complete with detailed notes which you can read here. You'll need Adobe Reader which you can download for free here.

Available at just £5.00 including UK postage. To obtain details of how to get a copy or for any further information please see this page.
