I'd not seen either of those - no mean feat considering the length of time I find myself on youtube!

 

Thanks for posting them.

 

Y'know, on the first vid, if you didn't know that the brake vans where yellow, you wouldn't know that they where from looking at the video.

Watching that really brings back memories.

 

I really do miss the 141/181's, and their sounds. Theres a distinctive kind of melodic wailing noise as 170 pulls away, in the first video, which is just very beautiful.
