<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I have 2 sets of the British Transport Films 1 & 4, and I have just ordered number 3. They are well worth having as they give you plenty of details for our layouts, and take you back (To some of us ) to happy days of our youth.
I can remember showing these when they first came out in the 16mm version. We had a film club and the company Bell and Howell at the Technical Centre.
Number 3 "E for Experimental" was particuarly relevant. I saw an old colleague of mine in the back ground.
And in Volume 4 "Forward to First Principles" there are sequences of a Steamer puffing away gallantly on the Cromford and High Peak, and Ambergate station with George Stephenson's limework as I remember it.
