Vol.101 - Peak Line Steam (60-mins) (* Released February 2004 *)

Ref: BR101D

A detailed film of the railway in the Peak District of Derbyshire which closed as a through route in 1968. There is extensive coverage of the CROMFORD & HIGH PEAK RAILWAY which ran over the 1000 ft. contour in windswept conditions. It had the formidable HOPTON incline at 1-in-14 which taxed loco skill to the limit for the J94’s seen here. Then there were the 8F’s from BUXTON shed where a visit is made to see them in the snowy February of 1968. They are seen taking the limestone traffic through PEAK FOREST. There is also a DMU journey from Millers Dales along Ashwood Dale to Buxton. HEATON MERSEY shed is visited (showing shed activities such as coaling 8Fs) including the last day of steam there and some views along the line to MANCHESTER CENTRAL and return to MILLERS DALE. This is a worthy record of those halcyon days of steam, filmed mostly in colour on 16mm format. Accompanying the film is an authentic soundtrack with an informative commentary.

Vol.105 - Remembering the Southern (60-mins) (* Released August 2004 *)

Ref: BR105D

Jim Clemens Collection No.14. Over the years, Jim visited the Southern region a lot of times. Remember how good the Withered Arm video was? In this volume we begin with a film from his collection of Dover in 1949. He took excursions to Brighton and Portsmouth, visited the Hayling Island and Lymington branches with M7’s and early 1960’s film on the Isle of Wight. The southern end of the Somerset and Dorset which was not included in the Somerset Railways video. This is not all about the end of Southern steam in 1967 although doubtless it will turn up one day! See how the sun really did come earliest in the South!
