A supreme collection.
Few children in the 1950s had the time or the money to cover the railways of the British Isles like Cam Camwell and these DVDs provide a priceless record of the steam age railway in all its glory. The programmes cover an enormous range of material including many long closed and forgotten lines. What a treat to see again many of the locomotives that we remember from our train spotting days. Thanks for the memories Cam, we are forever in your debt.

Black and White heaven
Excellent collection of black and white memories. You have to get used to the short little clips bought about by the expense of film back in the day but there are some magnificent gems to behold. It seemed a bit prices at first but after thinking about I took the plunge and have been well pleased
