Decades Of Steam DVD

1960s

Celebrating The Classic Age Of Steam

 

Narrated by Ken Morgan

 

The 1960s were to see the end of main line steam locomotion on the public railway network of Great Britain. This, final part of a series of five 100% archive film programmes, traces the last years of main line steam. The cruel blows of the Beeching 'axe' were to see many branch lines destroyed forever, and the scrapping of their trains. Main line electrification and dieselisation would make even the famous 'Duchesses', 'Kings', 'A4s', and Bullied Pacifics redundant. However a small gleam of light appeared on the horizon as railway preservation got underway, but after 11th August 1968 only one steam locomotive, Flying Scotsman, was allowed to see out the decade working on the main lines.

 

From the Standard classes built by BR itself through to one-offs, there were many steam classes still at work in the 1960s, and this programme includes '9Fs', 'Britannias', 'West Countries', 'Jubilees', 'Castles', Gresley-designed Pacifics and many goods and tank engines as they pass into history.
