Train Now Departing, The (complete)

A BBC series in six parts. Written and Narrated by Anthony Smith When the steam locomotive was abandoned in the '60's a piece of history was shut down, but nothing could dampen the fire of the steam enthuiast. About a thousand trains survived the scrap heap; some are in museums, others are back on the lines in pristine condition - a breath of the past and a noisy reminder that the spirit of the steam age lives on.
