🎥 Welcome to my vintage railway video archive!

This channel showcases rare and atmospheric railway footage, mainly from the North Staffordshire area, with a special focus on the Stoke to Leek Brook Junction and the Caldon Low and Oakamoor branches.

Featuring Class 24 and Class 25 diesel locomotives the original footage was captured in the 1970s using Super 8 cine film without sound— now professionally cleaned, digitised, and enhanced with AI stabilization to reduce camera shake. As these films were recorded without sound, I’ve carefully added authentic Class 24 cab recordings to bring them to life.

New uploads regularly, and I’m expanding the channel to share my international railway footage from the past decade — including railways in the USA, Canada, Peru, Australia, New Zealand, India, South Africa, and across Europe.
