The DRS class 20s 'Farewell Charter', Bristol-York-Leeds-Derby-Crewe-Bristol at Chapeltown Station - 7Mby MP4 video

            * A 27sec video to be watched here...

And finally, the Video sequence of the Charter's passage though Chapeltown on Saturday 18th January, 2020, it _was_ running 20 minutes late and its easy to assume that this was intentional, two class 20s of DRS, 20302 & 20305 operating the York to Crewe leg on the 'DRS Class 20 Farewell' charter in 2020.. 20 minutes late... maybe not...
I have taken the liberty of removing, once again, the irritating camera shutter noise which leave a couple of very short blanks in the sound.
This is the return section 1Z50, York via Leeds, Barnsley, Sheffield, Derby & Crewe to Bristol Temple Meads, with 'Riviera Trains Ltd' maroon/cream liveried coaches and one B.R. Mk1 'Crimson Lake & Cream Coach'. The set will pause again at Crewe where the DRS 20s will come off and, as the story has it, be sold on, so wont be seeing these units again on the S.Yorks R.H.T.T., what happens this year to that Autumn working, remains to be seen. This is the class 20, 20302, ex-D8084, 'DRS Class 20 Farewell' Charter with 20305, ex-D8095, 'Gresty Bridge' behind on the 1Z50, York via Leeds & Barnsley to Bristol Temple Meads Charter return via Derby  and Crewe where the 20s were removed and went over to Gresty Bridge and D.R.S. class 68, 68009, 'Titan' took charge at the front of the train and led the set back south.
