Could this have been the Somerset and Dorset Railway? Black and white nostalgia.

Description
The Somerset and Dorset Railway. I was too young to ever make a trip there, but how much I wish I had been able to go and view the scenes made famous by Ivo Peters!
I was looking again at my video of the 2025 North Yorkshire Moors Railway steam gala and realised a lot of the locomotive types were those that had run on the S&D. Then I thought, turn it into a black and white video and what do we have? A memory of how the S&D might have looked? What do you thinK?
Ignore the station locations (and the 2MT 2-6-0 which might have appeared if the line had remained open longer) and it could almost be amongst the Mendip Hills in the 1960's!
