Very sad indeed, but you have put together a great little film. - Given the line had already closed when the film was made, it is surprising to see how much of the infrastructure survives.

Thanks for putting this up brings back some good memories.

An interesting film the Titfield Thunderbolt I was at the Model Engineering Exhibition when it used to be held at the Wembley conference centre must have been 1981 or 1982 and the director gave a talk and presentation about the making of the film. It was made when materials were scarce I seem to remember he said the sequence of the 14XX going through the town was done using a car chassis and wooden mock-up of the loco! I think they had a lot of fun making it anyone else recall this talk?

Brian.
