Saturday Film Club: The Compton Down Railway



I picked up a slim booklet on building battery powered locomotives recently, by Peter Jones. The photos were taken on his famous "Compton Down Railway", a line I remember being impressed with through photos. No bucolic country railway, Peter built a proper slate line. 

This week's film dates from 1991 and has the least appropriate music, but is well worth a look as a tribute to the line. It is no more, but a few enthusiasts are preserving part of it
