Full Version of Class 33/1 Push-Pull Farewell Railtour 1988 (Southern Branch lines)

The railtour included visits to Eastleigh Works and all the still open 'Freight Only' branch lines in the area including: Marchwood & Fawley, Lymington Pier, Hamworthy Goods, Furzebrook Oil Depot (Swanage Branch) and Weymouth Quay Tramway. At this time many of the now closed and demolished signal boxes were still in place as well a semaphore signalling equipment. e.g. Weymouth Box. The trip down Weymouth Quay was hampered by the usual ignorance of signage by motorists. Parked cars had to be bumped or towed away! In 1988 home video recording equipment was in it's infancy. The camera used had an imaging TUBE that took 40 secs to warm up. No steady shot here! I've edited out the worst unwatchable stuff to make this reasonably watchable! Hopefully, the historic archive content will make up for the now laughable VHS video resolution compared to even a modern mobile phone!
