THE SEVERN VALLEY & LLANGOLLEN RAILWAYS

GWP made an award winning, hour long video programme on the Severn Valley Railway in 1995. It has been digitally remastered and placed on DVD. The award by the Royal Photographic Society was made for ellellent standard of photography. Now the programme’s on DVD, that quality can be seen to real advantage for the first time, with 60009 coming down the camera, a GWR Mogul rolling over the Victoria Bridge, The Pannier tank doing its stuff – all the sights and sounds of the premier preserved railway in 1995.

The LLangollen Railway was videoed in 1996, the year services were restored through Carrog. The excellence of the scenery in the valley of the River Dee is supplemented by the grace of the GWR Castle locomotive Defiant, as it gently chuffs along the valley floor with its train. You will also see a genuine GWR Auto Train, with the regulator in the front cab of the auto-coach being used to control the 0-4-4 tank locomotive propelling.
