- Synopsis:
Scenes at Gloucester focus on the wide variety of services at both Eastgate and Central Stations, together with the attendant locomotive depots of Barnwood and Horton Road. A journey to Severn Tunnel Junction shows the now demolished Severn Rail Bridge and at Severn Tunnel Junction steam and diesel traction is featured, including a SR 'Z' class on the shed. Gloucester was also a port and traffic is shown on the Gloucester and Berkeley Canal. In addition to mainline traffic, ex-GWR autotrains are shown in the Golden Valley between Gloucester and Chalford, and railbuses are shown on branchline journeys from Kemble to Cirencester and Tetbury. Finally, a journey to Bristol Temple Meads, with a mixture of ex-GWR and LMS locomotives on view, closes the programme. - Studio:
