BR in the 1980s Alton to Wimbledon Earlsfield Cab View 1988

ALTON to WIMBLEDON (Earlsfield) Cab View 1988 I have posted this video which was made in the summer of 1988, filmed by a good friend of mine (Nick Winfield) who sadly passed away late last year (2022) Nick filmed many of his cab rides in the South East and was an officiado on railways and architecture as well as being a musician. Obviously he made the odd filming error and in this video he states "Oh No my camera batteries have run out" A misjudgement on his part, so the video never got to London Waterloo. However what is particularly interesting with this video are the passing trains with 2 X class 73's on the Down Weymouth, A class 33 on the Salisbury. The double line (Down Road) still in situ in parts between Farnham and Alton, and of course the old signalboxes along the way. Remember the old carraige sheds opposite Weydon Lane in Farnham too. Yet the geography has changed little the railway scene has changed quite dramatically along with stock which seems to be mostly the same. Enjoy this trip on a pleasant Sunday afternoon from the town of Alton up to the "Old Smoke" ....almost NICK..... vacancy for a cameraman now. You are always remembered with great fondness Nick my friend.. The stock for this journey was formed of 2 X 4 Car VEP, numbers not recorded.
