Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway - The Early Years Volume 2 1987 | ||
During the mid to late 1980s I shot around 20 hours of video of the
Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway.
Almost all of the material is in good condition and has transfered
to PC at a good quality.

I used a Sony HVC4000P video camera, a Sony SL-F1UB portable video recorder, an external microphone,
and shot mainly on tripod.
All editing on these DVDs was carried out on a PC from DV format captures. The quality is as good as I can get with the equipment used at the time.
The main feature is an hour long and features the Bagnall 0-6-0ST
Byfield No 2
and Peckett 0-4-0ST John running push-pull to Hailes Abbey.
This includes a cab ride on Byfield No 2.
The first day of operation to Winchcombe Station is featured, on the weekend of 28th and 29th March 1987, with
Byfield No2and John double heading.
Normal services to Winchcombe, with Peckett John,
