The Peak Thrash CD

 

The Peak Thrash CD - a collection of 48 of the best peak recordings from the glory days of the 1980s is now available.

 

The tracks include start ups, shut downs, run pasts, engine room recordings, sounds from the front coach and storming station departures. If you listen carefully, you can hear air compressors, priming pumps, turbo chargers, and that Sulzer roar our favourite locos are best remembered for.

 

The price is £8.99, please make cheques payable to Great Gable, and post to the club address.

 

All proceeds will go towards the cost of repainting Great Gable into all over green livery, ready for her 50th birthday this summer.

 

 

The Peak Thrash DVD

 

 
The 'Peaks in Preservation DVD is now available. It is over 2 hours long and features non stop full throttle action of Peaks that I've filmed over the last 12 years. Every single shot is guaranteed to entertain with "maxthrash" at all times and of course they are 99% filmed on the "exhaust side" for maximun noise (except 45125!). There are absolutely no pootling about shots, shunting or arrival shots!
 
A full gen sheet with the contents is provided with each DVD.
 
The DVD is available at a very reasonable £15 including postage and packaging, with proceeds going towards the upkeep of 44004, 45041, 45108 & 46045.
 
To purchase a copy, please send cheques made payable to 'The Great Gable Club' to the club address (click 'contact us' for details)
