- Synopsis:
The Whistle Stop! series of videos is now widely regarded as the leading programme for fans of the photographic charter phenomena - where locomotives are matched with authentic stock, often including renumbering and renaming of locomotives as long-lost class mates. Everything is stage managed so that you hear and see the magical sights of the steam locomotive at work - there is no padding in Whistle Stop!-all sequences are action shots with the regulator usually open wide! In this edition there are plenty of BR-liveried locomotives to enjoy, including a grimy 9F No. 92203 at Toddington; No. 7822 Foxcote Manor at Toddington and at its home base, the Llangollen Railway as No. 7800 Torquay Manor; Ivatt 2MT No. 46441 at both the Keighley and Worth Valley and East Lancashire (as 46417) railways; BR Standard 4MT tank and tender locomotives at the Great Central and Bluebell railways (Nos. 80151, 80104 and 75014); lvatt 2MT 2-6-2T No. 41312 at the Great Central Railway; 0-6-0 PT No. 9642 at the Dean Forest Railway; B1 No. 61264 (as former Norwich engine No. 61270) and B12 No. 61572 at the North Norfolk Railway; and WD 2-10-0 No. 90775 on a freight train at the Great Central Railway. Another major feature includes the 2'6" gauge Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway which celebrates its centenary in 2003, with both No. 822 The Earl and No. 823 The Countess in action on freight trains. - Narrated By:
