£20.00 Add to basketCotswolds & Malverns line – Driver’s Eye View
The Cotswolds and Malverns line is 86¼ miles long through the heart of the English countryside, recognised as an area of outstanding natural beauty.
This DVD produced by Video 125 begins at Oxford, the gateway to the Cotswolds. Much of the route is of single track but some sections have recently been reinstated allowing line speeds of up to 100mph. Much of the route is still worked on the block signalling principle and controlled by semaphores. The DVD is filmed from the cab of a First Great Western HST.
As well as following our HST from the cab and trackside, there are also sections of the magnificent scenery filmed from the air. This Driver’s eye view was filmed almost in real time and mostly in the mid-summer sunshine of 2013.
Running Time is 108 Minutes

Midland to Manchester DVD
£11.00 Add to basketMidland to Manchester DVD
During summer 2004, 125 Group was given exclusive authority by Midland Mainline to record the view from the cab of a Project Rio service.
In order to ‘keep the sun on our backs’ we nominated the 0900 from London St. Pancras as first choice train. On the day, there were two things that we desperately wanted to avoid, one was rain, the other a VP185! Fortunately the rain kept away and we were not disappointed with the set provided, 43198 leading and 43158 trailing gave a flawless performance. Despite a random signal check and some horses on the line, Leicester was reached early so we were away ‘right time’. Remarkably, the next time we stopped was in the platform at Manchester Piccadilly having run via the regular Rio route of the Erewash and Hope Valleys and then via Romiley as the Stockport area was blocked for West Coast Route Modernisation work.
