Settle Carlisle:- The Fight for the Settle-Carlisle. 1983, BBC North

A half-hour documentary on a major issue in 1983, the proposed closure of the railway line between Settle and Carlisle. The line was built by the Midland Railway in the 1870s and is a triumph of Victorian engineering. It provides a scenic journey through part of the Yorkshire Dales and the Eden Valley.
The line had a stay of execution and was eventually reprieved in 1989, to the credit of Michael Portillo, the Transport Minister in the Thatcher Government.
