Class 42 & 43 'Warship' DVDs
Maybach Pioneer
2008 marked the 50th anniversary of the introduction of the class 42 & 43 'warships,' which were concieved out of the V200 class of West Germany. The class was set to completely transform and revolutionise West of England services in the late 1950s, bringing about the rapid and utter elimination of steam power in the west. This DVD examines the myths, lengends & history behind this mystical class, from conception to preservation and beyond, represented by D832 Onslaught as she tackles the severe and twisting gradients through West Somerset. Listen to the Maybach magic as her twin V12 MD650 engines reverberate on expresses and goods, together with classes 25, 47 and her larger and more powerful hydraulic brethren, the class 52 'Westerns.' This DVD is an absolute must for all Maybach fans! RUNNING TIME: 47 mins. PRICE: £19.99 + £3 P&P.

WESTERN CAB RIDE is the first volume in a new collection of steam, diesel and electric locomotive cab and footplate rides that are now available from Classic Traction. The Classic Traction Cab Ride Series enables the viewer to experience the thrill of a driver's eye view over some of the country's most historic railway lines. In this first volume, we travel to one of the country's premier preserved lines, as we head to the Severn Valley Railway in Worcestershire. Filmed during one of the railway's renowned and highly acclaimed Driver Experience Courses, we travel for 13 miles from Bewdley to Bridgnorth in one of the Western Region's iconic Class 52 'Western' diesel-hydraulic locomotives, D1013 Western Ranger. Hauling an eight coach load totalling 280 tons, her the magnificent sound of Western Ranger's twin 65 litre Maybach V12s, as she passes through the Severn Valley, culminating in the magnificent ascent of Eardington bank! To conclude, we return to Bewdley, and this time make the journey again, but this time with the aid of computer technology, we make the journey in 'London to Brighton' style, as we journey to Bridgnorth in just over 9 minutes, as we travel along the Severn Valley at a simulated speed of 200mph! This DVD is a perfect tribute to the wonderful Severn Valley Railway, in what many regard as the most iconic diesel classes of all time! RUNNING TIME: 54 mins. PRICE: £19.99 + £3 P&P.
