Wow, great shots. Check out the Drayton Park one next to it-good to see Control trailers in action!

What about that ..Class 25 I think it was? D 5[0?]72? The tractors looked as though they may have been Nuffields but I know who can tell!
The terminus with semaphores..was that Richmond?

Some rare footage there!
I'm not sure if I have ever seen anything other than A, C and D stock, I certainly can't recall the red running up the subsurface lines. (I can just recall 38ts in regular service)

Wombeldon! Should have recognised the power box on the right, not the left!

Yes it was! During slack hours the trains (as shown) ran DM-CT,
and in the rush hour DM-CT+CT-T-T-DM
