Growing up in Bervie from the age of ten, this was my nearest and first steam railway to visit (since then been to a few others). That footbridge at Bridge of Dun was installed a few years ago and used to be the footbridge at Dunblane station. Also, Bridge of Dun used to see the main Aberdeen to Glasgow expresses, which in the 60s were hauled by former LNER pacifics.

Travelling in the early seventies in a steam train, you knew that one toot was a warning to close windows and keep your head in. Two quick toots after gave the all clear. As it is very hot here, you wanted windows open for as long as possible. A few sections of the track consisted of long tunnels, so stifling hot sections and the soot and coal smells came into compartment regardless.

It was probably hauled by an N B TYPE ! Diesel,the the diesel engines sadly used to catch fire. N B in Glasgow apparently expressed preferance for an engine which the German supplier(M A N) said was to small. Some were later re - engined with British Paxman engines. British Railways actualy put steam on(A4 Pacific) to replace them. The A4's were regular performers between Glasgow and Aberdeen and Dundee in the mid sixties. I used to travel regularly behind them with my brother and our late mum. The N B diesels could be seen in the scrap sidings at Eastfield in 69/70 sad evidence to the once mighty North British Locomotive Company once rivalled only by Baldwin of the U S A as being The Biggest Locomotive bulider in the world.

Great wee video , travelled on this a few times a while back nice to see its still doing well. Took a group down from Aberdeen and we'd visit House of Dun then catch a train back.

I grew up in England with the "chuffa" trains at the end of my street (okay, totally aging myself🤣🤣)...trainspotting was a fun pastime. I also remember taking a vintage coal train up a mountain in West Virginia and getting covered in soot just like you did here....aaahhhh, happy days.

Another great video Steve - must admit I was looking for Will Hay there in "Oh Mr Porter" - probably a lot of people won`t remember that film ;0)
