- During the 1950's the steam locomotive was seen as an anachronism which had to be replaced by 'modern' power. This programme traces the last full decade of steam locomotive development by examining each of the regions of the British railways, and sets the scene for steam's final years.
Really really really enjoyed that - thankyou so much for putting that on here. Great joy - but tinged with sadness.
There’s a lot of clips of Leamington Spa General in there including The Cornishman diverted
Thanks for uploading these, been waiting ages for the last 2 parts
Oh, how wonderful it is to be able to say that Beachy Head was brought back from beyond the grave!

What on earth is S O L as applied to gw Kings and castles? Googled no answer- assuming Swindon something locomotives but not a clue, thanks for video, cracking! And stop that dog barking- it gets everywhere!
Great visuals but despite what appeared to be great sound I had to watch with the sound turned off because the narrator just would not stop talking.
Please can you re release with just the railway sounds.
This programme is decade's old now
'The narrator just would not stop talking'. It's a history programme. What did you expect, ASL?
Are you OK ? Documentaries always have narration!
