British Railways - Vintage Southern Electric Trains
€15.49
This programme offers much rare footage made on the railways of the south east of England between the 1930s and the 1960s. The films begin at London Bridge in 1931 with a 'Schools' class 4-4-0 in original condition. Rare colour footage taken in 1938 at London Bridge and Sutton follows. An LBSCR 4-6-4 tank is then shown working a train between London Bridge and Norwood Junction.
The last part of the programme deals with some of the delightful branch and secondary lines in the south east. We journey along the now preserved Bluebell Railway from East Grinstead to Lewes, in BR days and see something of that other preserved line the Kent and East Sussex in the 1950s and 60s. The branch lines from Dunton Green to Westerham and from Paddock Wood to Hawkhurst are explored towards the end of the programme.
