    Wonderful time capsule of our old Railways.

    I worked in that electrical control room at Canterbury for 19 years. It hadn't changed, but it is now since I've left

    The massive investment in new marshalling yards soon became obsolete with train loads and Freightliners.
    Likewise the Bletchley flyover was another white elephant, we learn nothing ,so now we're building HS2, complete waste of time and money.

    In a film about railway modernisation, more emphasis could have been placed on steam loco scrapping... footage of cutting up steam locos and bringing in diesels with triumphant music etc.

      @@jamescrab4110 No point. The film has already been made and I doubt Pathé still exists. I'm just expressing on You Tube that I would like to see more steam loco cutting and general destruction.

      You shouldn't try to press your steam loc scrapping kink on us.

      @@stupidpros Well there's plenty of steam loco fans who post on scrapping videos who keep on saying they should not be scrapped. Are you going to go round telling those people to keep quiet?
      No, I don't think so! Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Only through debate can we establish the correct course of action... such as scrapping of steam locomotives.

    Мощность можно передавать только коаксильным кабелем для стационарных объектов. Контактный провод действует как антена и превращает нас кретинов. А терминал в стиле Сидней Опера, без комментариев. Сколько лет нужно, чтобы понять, что кирпичный вокзал такое же достояние как собор Святого Павла и Дворец Юстиции.

    The 50s was a time of great optimism. Innovative new technology and jobs freely available in a country spared the disaster of unmitigated third world immigration.
