Life Along the Line | Vintage scenes at the Great Central Railway
Thanks must go to the Great Central Railway, Quorn Wagon & Wagon and the staff at Quorn & Woodhouse station for making these scenes possible.
Inspired by the British Transport Films of the era, as well as the GCR's own take on these classic films by the staff at Quorn and Woodhouse station, whose latest film you can view here: https://youtu.be/fyYM_20OlsQ
