"Today's generation will never know the full majesty of steam." True I guess. But when you count the enthusiasts, and you look at what's been saved, you'd tend to think that little has been forgotten.

it looked like Prince Philip loved having a go driving Green Arrow for the short trip up the track
I believe three new steam trains are currently in construction, including the P2 Pacific.
Have this on DVD. It's fantastic.
GER No.87 is a very underrated but gorgeous tank engine. It’s a shame the NRM don’t want it anymore.
Wow
This is nice
This is a great documentary although I think the one David shepherd narrated was better.
spent a whole 3 minutes of ads for this. better be good
Load of bollox, 1975 wasn't the 150th anniversary of steam, The two oldest surviving locos are from 1813 & 1815 not the suggested date of 1825.
Not steam, steam railway - Stockton and Darlington Railway, 1825 was first steam public railway.
What the narrater did get wrong is the inventor, it wasnt George Stephenson, it was Richard traviket.
