- Synopsis:
Today's rail fans may have to travel as far as China or Cuba in search of steam - but not so long ago things were very different. As far as the majority of rail enthusiasts in the UK were concerned, when English steam finished during August 1968, their hobby was effectively dead. Few people in those days had the money, time or the knowledge to travel the world in search of steam and of course many British fans were notoriously blinkered claiming to be 'only interested in UK steam anyway'. Fortunately a few rail fans had the forsight to record the passing steam railway heritage overseas as well as at home and it's thanks entirely to their efforts that we can all now enjoy some of the finest line-side action to be seen anywhere in the world. Highlights include trains in West Germany, Spain, Portugal, Turkey, Pakistan, India, Rhodesia (Zimbabwe) and South Africa - Producers:
