British Rail Network SouthEast-DMU cab ride Pt 1 Barking to Leytonstone High Rd 1990

A BR cab view vid now on the Barking to Gospel Oak line. A view from the front of a class 117 DMU from Barking to Gospel Oak. Part 1 shows the route from Barking to Leytonstone High Road. At this time the route was controlled from manual signal boxes with plenty of semaphores. Leytonstone itself didn't even have any track circuits for its station limits! It was switched out and eventually abolished in the early 1990s. The route now is thriving and has a much better train service, a lot more signals and new stock (at last!).
