Rainhill 150 May 1980

[Ploughman]

An odd query here.
I attended the Rainhill 150 event back in 1980
But today try as I might I cannot find a list showing all the items of rolling stock that took part.
In particular the number of the 07 Tamper that took part cannot be found.
Can anyone help?

The following video on Youtube may be of some help regarding loco numbers at least, doesn't seem to have the 07 in there though. Still worth a watch though

The tamper appears at about 48m 30 on this official programme but the number cannot be made out.

I think a lot of other film clips have had selective editing removing all diesels etc just concentrating on the big steamers. Even the resident Austerity tank Robert is missing from a number of clips.

I remember having what I think was a British Transport Films video of this, after Evening Star it skipped right through to the APT! I think a few steam engines were left out as well, don't recall 80079 for instance.

I was a kid when I viewed what would have even then been quite a dated video and was fascinated by the pre-BR liveries always seemed more interesting to me than to what I saw as the more drab black and brunswick BR variants. Still do I suppose.

The Deltic involved was 55015 TULYAR, not 55005.

Of course it was, bit of a dumb mistake there! I have now edited the above, thanks Tony
