Episode 3 of 4
Wales's steam railways seemed lost forever with the Beeching cuts of the 1960s. This series celebrates their revival with archive film and memories of passengers and railwaymen.
The steam railways of Wales seemed lost forever with the Beeching cuts of the 1960s, but this series celebrates their revival with wonderful colour archive film combined with the memories of passengers and railwaymen from the age of steam.
In this episode, we meet a schoolboy driver, a station master, firemen and some holidaymakers who share a passion for steam with the volunteers at Llangollen Railway.
We also meet the last generation of Welsh steam railwaymen and visit the heritage railway which keeps their glorious past alive.
