A short feature this week showing some running on the Leek & Manifold Railway in the 1930s. The highlight is right at the start showing the loading of one of the lines wagons for transporting standard gauge wagons - I've seen photos in the past but never moving pictures.
It's strange to think that these were once everyday scenes.
I've cycled and walked this route and like you Phil have never seen a movie film of the line until now. What a pleasant look into history this film is, something alas that is gone forever.
