  • I have been searching through my old VHS tapes,I found many old videos of railways we have visited...I copied them to a DVD disc but Windows 10 doesn't allow me to play or upload them on to my computer.
    So this footage is copied from the tv while the tape played,so excuse the slight loss in quality...Although the camera footage is not as good as modern cameras, also it films in a different aspect.
    Enjoy.

    I went to March on a Sunday last Summer with the sole purpose of visiting the DWLR. I could not find the railway and was informed by locals that the railway no longer existed and had been closed down for some years.

    Ah, you and Rosie are newly-weds I see! Dawn and I were married in 1967, mind you I didn't get her interested in railways until 1969 when I took her on The Festiniog Railway (1961 when I first went) fortunately she fell in love with railways......nuff said!!

    By gum Chris, you must have collected some footage of film one way or the other over the years! Not grumbling, it's giving a lot of pleasure!

      Hi guys. Yes we are still here. After being closed for a few years around 3 or 4 years ago. And since then the railway has been very popular and very busy. We now open longer. To cope. Sadly have took a knock this year like everyone else but hope to come back stronger!
