That was the intention! :D

I was 8, the only real memory I have of the railways of that time was the cab road at London Paddington and the David & Charles coaches at Newton Abbot. Or did they go earlier? Anyway, at that time I was only interested in Kettles!

As this thread is about films I thought i'd ask here. Last week I bought the DVD 'Steam around Bristol'. Theres fantastic in cab footage of the trip from Radstock to Portishead, though it only really shows brief clips going through Whitchurch, stockwood, then on to TM & past Leigh woods.

Anyone know if the full film is available? Thanks for your help.

On another note, good to see the website going strong after my "time away!" :mrgreen:

The videos of Temple Meads brought back very happy memories indeed.
