Farewell to the Pines
FAREWELL TO THE PINES is a tribute o the spectacular Somerset & Dorset themed Autumn Steam Gala that was held on the West Somerset over 4th - 7th October 2012. Remembering the 50th anniversary of the diversion of the iconic 'Pines Express' away from the Somerset & Dorset on 8th September 1962, this DVD evokes the glory days of this legendary route that operated between Bath Green Park and Bournemouth West. This DVD examines former Somerset & Dorset motive power at the gala, including LMS Ivatt 4MT 2-6-0 'Flying Pig' 43106 (visiting from the Severn Valley Railway), LMS Black Five 4-6-0 45379 (visiting from the Mid Hants), BR Standard 9F 2-10-0 92203 Black Prince and SDJR 7F 2-8-0 No. 88. The 'Pines' was diverted away from the S & D and on to Western Region metals in 1962, being routed via Oxford, Reading, Basingstoke and Southampton, and the gala paid tribute to this with a host of former WR & GWR locomotives including GWR 49xx 'Hall' 4-6-0 4936 Kinlet Hall, GWR 69xx 'Modified Hall' 6960 Raveningham Hall, BR (WR) 78xx 'Manor' 4-6-0 7828 Norton Manor - 40 Commando and BR (WR) 41xx 'Large Prairie' 2-6-2T 4160.

Spirit of the Cambrian
SPIRIT OF THE CAMBRIAN is a tribute DVD devoted to the ground-breaking Cambrian themed gala event that was held on the South Devon Railway during April 2011, and which featured the first ever visit of Great Western 'Dukedog' 4-4-0 9017 Earl of Berkeley from the Bluebell. This programme examines all of the action from the event as Cambrian scenes from the 1950s are recreated alongside the River Dart as 9017 works local passenger, goods and milk trains, as well as double-heading the iconic 'Cambrian Coast Express.' We also see GWR Collett '2251' 0-6-0 3205 on local passenger, BR Sulzer type 2 / class 25 diesel D7612 on local pick-up goods, and for the first time in well over 50 years we see a 'Dukedog' and Collett '2251' 0-6-0 double-head, as well as seeing Cambrian auto workings recreated with 5526 and auto-trailers W225 & W228. As if all of this wasn't enough, this programme also includes a feature on the 1940s war weekend of 10th - 11th July 2010, which featured the visit from Didcot of GWR 53xx Mogul 5322 in First World War R.O.D khaki livery, plus the repaint into GWR wartime black of GWR Pannier 5786. As wartime military freights head up and down the line, we reflect on what it would have been like on the Cambrian during the 1940s. Finally, also included is a feature on the Cambrian themed 'Rails & Ales' gala of the 28th - 30th August 2010, which included the visit of GWR auto-trailer No. 178 and GWR 14xx 0-4-2T 1450, a one-time stalwart of the Dart Valley, and a sight not seen on the Ashburton branch for many a long year! This is a programme that all devotees of the GWR will want to savour as we reflect on the Cambrian lines through such locomotives as GWR Moguls & 'Dukedogs,' Prairies, Panniers and GWR auto-trains, and this is a DVD that will be regarded as a classic by all Great Western enthusiasts as the years pass by!

Eastleigh 100 Tribute
South Devon Railway 'Celebrating 40 years'
Over the last 40 years the South Devon has established itself as one of the finest preserved lines in the British Isles. Re-opened by Dr Beeching in 1969, the embryonic Dart Valley was one of the pioneers of railway preservation, and this DVD is a tribute to the 40th anniversary celebrations that were held on the line during April 2009. Witness the greatest gathering of locomotives that the line has ever seen, including for the first time in the branches history, the first ever gathering of three GWR 'Prairies' on the line. As well as 5542, 5526 & 5542, the gala also featured 'Pannier' tanks 6435, 5786 & 1369, together with 'heavy-freight' 2-8-0 3803. Never before have so many locomotives seen service on the branch, and as if this wasn't enough, making a class debut on the line was South Wales 'coal tank' 6695. This programme captures all the excitement and action from the gala, and promises to be a lasting memorial of one of the definitive steam events of 2009! If you want a lasting testament of this momentous event in the South Devon's history, this is the DVD for you! RUNNING TIME: 82 MINS. PRICE: £19-99 + £3 p&p.

Great Western Tribute
Great Western Tribute investigates the legacy of the GWR throughout the country, studying Great Western engines hard at work on both main and branch lines. We study such locomotives as the mighty Kings, Castles, Manors and Dukedogs, to perhaps the most famous of all GWR locomotives, City of Truro. We see GWR locomotives hard at work in the depths of Cornwall, tackling 1 in 37 gradients on the Bodmin & Wenford Railway, to the splendour of the South Devon, Paignton & Dartmouth and Severn Valley Railways. This DVD will undoubtably evolve into a classic that all devotees of God's Wonderful Railway will want to savour for years to come! RUNNING TIME: 87 mins. PRICE: £19.99 + £3 p&p.

Down the Line to Kingswear
The line to Kingswear was opened in June 1864, and Down the line to Kingswear explores the development of this line from Aller Junction to Kingswear, but in particular, the 7 mile section from Paignton to Kingswear, which was closed by BR in 1972, and its consequent take-over by the Paignton & Dartmouth Railway. Relax as we locomotive types that were used on the line in Great Western and BR days, such as Kings and Manors, together with GWR Prairie and heavy freight 2-8-0 tanks, together with diesel-hydraulics in the shape of D1015 Western Champion. This programme examines the locomotives that are used on the line by the Paignton & Dartmouth, together with the summer dated Torbay Express workings. Listen in awe, as Britain's premier express locomotives, such as Kings, Battle of Britains and A4s, grapple with the railway's severe 1 in 60 gradients, as they head to the Royal Naval town of Dartmouth. See unique footage as during one of these workings, headed by LNER A4 Pacific 60009 Union of South Africa, stalls on Goodrington Bank, and is rescued by Lydham Manor, providing the first ever combination of an A4 and GWR 'Manor' double-heading! This is a DVD that has established itself as one of the definitive programmes on the line, and will ultimately be one that you will treasure for years to come! RUNNING TIME: 95 mins. PRICE: £19-99 + £3 p&p.
