Full description from the producer:

2024 marks the 30th anniversary of Train Crazy railway videos and DVDs. To mark the occasion, a series of special low-price compilation DVDs and Blu-rays are being produced using the original film shot 30-years ago, right up to more recent times. Presented in a class-by-class format, and delving deep into the archives, some of this footage has been released before on VHS tape, some on DVD and some has never been seen at all.

The old film used on these new compilation programmes is all being reworked, improved, cleaned up and upscaled. For the first time, all of the film shot in standard-definition (720 x 576 or less) can be upscaled and presented in top quality high-definition (1920 x 1080).

The fourth release features Train Crazy film of the Class 86 locomotives from the period 1994 to 2021. The 86 needs little introduction and locos are featured far and wide including West Coast, Cross Country and Anglia passenger duties as well as West Coast container and mail trains. More than 70 different locos are featured wearing a rainbow of liveries – from Inter City and Virgin to the numerous Freightliner colours, RES and a few celebrities.

Presented in a no-nonsense format of on-screen captions with unit number, location and date, sit back and enjoy some top quality action from up to 30-years ago – with much improved picture quality and in HD for the very first time! This is far from a complete record of these locos during these years but this is what was filmed, now re-edited, re-worked and upscaled.
