Features:

FORTY YEARS AT BUCKFASTLEIGH - The first standard gauge heritage line in the West Country, Britaina€ s top summer holiday destination, opened to passengers 40 years ago. However, in 1991, enthusiasts again saved it from closure, and thanks to an inspirational general manager and an army of volunteers, the South Devon Railway has established itself as one of the leading players in the heritage sector. In the build-up to the railwaya€ s landmark nine-day Easter extravaganza of steam, the biggest event in its linea€ s history, Robin Jones looks back at this marvellous epitome of the Great Western country branch line.

THATa€ S A LOT! - The success of the North Norfolk Railwaya€ s a€~Thata€ s Yet Lota€ gala to mark the 50th anniversary of the closure of the Midland & Great Northern Joint Railway system sent shock waves through the preservation movement, after more than 15,000 people turned up to ride on the trains over five days. The majority were local people, whose families still hold great affection and respect for the M&GN despite the passage of time, writes Robin Jones.

LAST STEAM TO KESWICK - The breathtaking scenery of the Lake District was once served by the Cockermouth, Keswick and Penrith Railway; but it progressively became a victim of closure, the last section closing in 1972. Maurice Burns recalls his memories of this beautiful line as he caught on camera some of the very last passenger trains and steam excursions over this route and a truly remarkable discovery, by luck, of a very special excursion - a steam-hauled Royal Train to Keswick!

GENIUS- OR THE DEVIL INCARNATE? - There has been considerable and heated debate over the digital manipulation of pictures. One principal exponent of the art, Ed Hurst, explains how he does it- and why.

BIG ENGINES, BIG CROWDS - Bumper crowds turned up to the Severn Valley Railway to welcome four visiting main line engines to the 6-8 March steam gala, including two that had never visited the heritage line before, in Duke of Gloucester and Oliver Cromwell, as Brian Sharpe reports.

50 YEARS OF THE PEAKS - Time flies, so they say, but does it really seem like 50 years since the first Peak rolled off the production line at Derby? J Crosse recounts the history of the BR-built 1Co-Co1 Type 4 diesels.
