The Restored Railways of Britain - Midlands.

From the late Teddy Bostons Rectory Railway at Cadeby to the ancient and modern at Crewe Heritage Centre, this programme contains an enormous range of railway interest. It samples the activities of the long established Severn Valley Railway, as well as the massive task undertaken by Peak Rail, re-opening their line through the beautiful Derbyshire Dales. The unique collection of trains at the National Tramway Museum, Crich and the impressive locos of the Great Central Railway are also featured.


The Restored Railways of Britain - North East England.

The North East is a Mecca for keen railway enthusiasts. It includes the only remaining rope hauled incline, at Bowes, as well as two of Britains most extensive preserved railways in the North Yorkshire Moors and Keighley and Worth Valley. The exceptional National Railway Museum situated in the historic city of York contrasts with a more specialised museum at Hull, while the Middleton Railway provides a welcome escape from the busy centre of Leeds.


The Restored Railways of Britain - North West England.

The North West of England is the cradle of industrial and railway history and can still muster a varied and impressive range of railways and steam power. The region features the ideal tourist line Tlaal Ratty, running along the Esks wooded valley into the heart of the Lake District. There is the award winning East Lancashire and South Tyndale Railways, and loco collections at Carnforth and Southport have connections to BRs Main Line. Exhibited in the power hall of Manchesters Museum of Science and Industry are steam engines and exhibits of all types and sizes, while at Blackpool we find the UKs sole surviving street tramway system.


The Restored Railways of Britain - South East England.

The South East is rich in privately preserved steam railways, ranging from the famous standard gauge Bluebell Railway, which was taken over by enthusiasts over 30 years ago, to the 13.5 mile long Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch, the most fully equipped 15 inch gauge railway in the modern world. This programme also contains the old world charm of a wine and dine train on the Lavender Line, industrial narrow gauge nostalgia on the Sittingbourne and Kemsley Railway and reflections of the expanding Kent and East Sussex Railway.


The Heyday of British Steam. London - South Midlands - South West

Video technology came too late to record the golden years of Britains railways during the steam era, but thanks to a handful of amateur cameramen armed with 8mm cine cameras, many images of the Iron Horse have been saved for posterity. This series is a collection of some of those shots and Part I covers London, the South Midlands and the South West. Our journey starts at Rugby and continues via Leamington Spa, Banbury, Oxford and Reading. From Reading we head west, looking at Swindon Works shed and station. We pause at Bath and Bristol before a nostalgic look at the former Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway. From there its London via Salisbury and Basingstoke. All the shots, taken in the 1950s and 1960s, are totally original and are in full colour with sound track and commentary.


The Heyday of British Steam. East Midlands - The North East of England

Video technology came too late to record the golden years of Britains railways during the steam era, but thanks to a handful of amateur cameramen armed with 8mm cine cameras, many images of the Iron Horse have been saved for posterity. This series is a collection of some of those shots and Part II covers the East Midlands and the North East of England. We begin at Leicester at the Great Central Station where experimental gas turbine locomotive GT3 is seen in the shed. Then its north to Derby, via Loughborough and Nottingham. From Nottingham we join the East Coast main line at Grantham and experience the majesty of the Gresley Pacifics at work, before moving north to Doncaster and York. A brief visit to the Thirsk and Darlington area and then we cross to West Yorkshire for some steam trains on the magnificent Settle and Carlisle Line. All the shots, taken in the 1950s and 1960s, are totally original and are in full colour with sound track and commentary.


The Heyday of British Steam. Birmingham - The North Midlands - Wales

Video technology came too late to record the golden years of Britains railways during the steam era, but thanks to a handful of cameramen armed with 8mm cine cameras, many images of the Iron Horse have been saved for posterity. This series is a collection of some of those shots and Part III covers the Birmingham area and the North Midlands and Central Wales. We begin at Nuneaton and Coventry, witnessing both areas before the erection of overhead wires. From Coventry we move to Birmingham Station and see New Street Station pre-building. A brief visit to Saltley Station and the Camp Hill gradient is followed by a compilation of trains filmed at Birminghams other main line station, Snow Hill. From Birmingham we move north to Stafford on the West Coast Main Line and then west to Shrewsbury. Part III concludes with some hard working steam hauled trains on Talerddig bank in mid Wales. All the shots, taken in the 1950s and 1960s, are totally original and are in full colour with sound track and commentary.


The Heyday of British Steam. The West Midlands - The North - The North West

Video technology came too late to record the golden years of Britains railways during the steam era, but thanks to a handful of cameramen armed with 8mm cine cameras, many images of the Iron Horse have been saved for posterity. This series is a collection of some of those shots and Part IV covers the West Midlands and the North of England. We begin at Gloucester where the diminutive former G.W.R. 0-4-2 tank engines were still working push and pull trains. From Gloucester we head to the western suburbs of Birmingham via the famous Lickey Incline where heavyweight expresses could be seen struggling with the 1 in 37 gradient. A look at Wolverhamptons Low Level Station before it closed, is followed by a journey to Manchester via Stoke on Trent, Crewe and Stockport. After Manchester we cross the Pennines and end our journey at Sheffields Victoria Station where Directors 04s and K Class moguls were still hard at work. All the shots, taken in the 1950s and 1960s, are totally original and are in full colour with sound track and commentary.


The Heyday of British Steam. London - The Isle of Wight - Scotland

Video technology came too late to record the golden years of Britains railways during the steam era, but thanks to a handful of amateur cameramen armed with 8mm cine cameras, many images of the Iron Horse have been saved for posterity. This series is a collection of those shots and Part V covers the London area, the Isle of Wight and Scotland. Until the mid 1960s, the Isle of Wight still depended on small Victorian 0-4-4 tank engines of the O2 Class to operate its island network. Our cameramen were on hand to record some of these locomotives. Back on the mainland we travel via Southampton and Brighton to the London area where steam engines are seen at several of the main line terminus stations as well as in the suburbs. A brief look at Bletchley is followed by a comprehensive journey around Scotland before line closures and dieselisation were to change the countrys railway scene for ever. All the shots, taken in the 1950s and 1960s, are totally original and are in full colour with sound track and commentary.

Every railway enthusiast will enjoy the sights and sounds as we take a look at arrivals and departures of both freight and passenger trains at the wonderful Wansford Station - home to the Nene Valley Railway. Filmed in 2001 and 2004 at the diesel gala days, we take a nostalgic view at what it must have been like to be hauled by big and powerful diesel trains of the sixties and seventies. We shall see such locomotives as the Class 40 with its distinctive whistle exhaust tone, known to enthusiasts as whistlers, and a Class 55 Deltic known as the race horses of the East Coast Mainline. Highlight of the 2004 diesel gala weekend was Class 56057 running for the first time in preservation in EWS livery, other locomotives include a visiting Class 66 from GB Rail freight in the Medite Livery and, of course, resident locos and DMUs. Other interesting features of the station were also filmed including a visit to the loco shed - this and much more can be seen at this wonderful preserved railway.
