Fall and Rise of Britain's Railways

This major new documentary tells the story of how the railways of Great Britain met and overcame the challenges of the post industrial era.

From the legacy of WWII, through the years of neglect and under investment and the trauma of Beeching's cuts to a period of hope and growth epitomised by the Intercity 125. Packed with superbly restored colour and B&W footage.

Comprised entirely of archive film from ITN, British Movietone News, Pathe and British Transport Films.

Includes never before released original newsreels - unseen since their broadcast in cinemas decades ago.

Steam At War

During the Second World War, Britain's railways played a vital role in the nation's war effort. This unique double DVD set is a comprehensive and truly fascinating film record of Britain's railways at war. Packed with rare archive footage, it covers every aspect of wartime running from the troop and freight trains hauling men and munitions through to evacuee trains, Luftwaffe raids on railways and marshalling yards and mobile hospital carriages. Wartime locomotive manufacturing and naming ceremonies, rail-mounted anti-aircraft guns and the war work of women on the railways are also covered.

The Complete Flockton Flyer

Available for the very first time on DVD, this 1970s Children’s’ drama series was filmed on the beautiful West Somerset Steam Railway. When the Carter family lose their garage business, they decide to run their local steam preservation railway and set up home in the derelict Flockton Station. With Dad Bob now the driver of a restored 1931 GWR engine ‘The Flockton Flyer’, it’s full steam ahead for fun and adventure! This new DVD includes all twelve episodes.
