The Long Drag DVD 1960s Steam Motive Power Settle-Carlisle Railway S&C Peaks

The Long Drag Dvd\n\nAn award-winning documentary made in 1963 about the Settle-Carlisle Railway. \nThis is a very special opportunity to own a copy of the film \u2018The Long Drag\u2019 on DVD. \nMade between 1960 and 1963 by Peter Boocock, a keen film maker from West Yorkshire, his award-winning film about the Settle-Carlisle Railway won its title in the world-wide \u2018Tenbest\u2019 film awards of 1963. \n\nThis evocative colour film about the S&C portrays an important era on the line, when titled trains were still evident, and hauled by \u2018Peaks\u2019, and when freight was very much in the hands of steam motive power. \nWe see the line before its final run-down and view the stations and structures with all their fittings. \nHis filming period included the severe winter of 1962/3 and brings to reality the harshness of a snow covered Pennine route. \n\nApprox. 50 minutes.\nThis new dvd is being sold with full permission of the copyright holder: Kingfishe.
