Some time ago I was in Aylesbury having a coffee when a chap sat down and as you do we started to talk, I told him I ran a few forums one of them being trains. He told me he had an uncle who had left him several 8mm cine films of steam trains he had filmed at such places as Leighton Buzzard and Waterloo.

Anyway I agreed to pay to get them put onto DVD if he allowed me to post them on Railwayforum.net Today I picked up the DVD the film is from around 1962/3

the first ones appear to be of birds, ie Silver swan ? Mallard, Kingfisher? I presume these mean more to our members than me! there is also a beauty called sir keith Mark, with the Royal air force logo.

I will try and get some of it on the site this weekend, in all the film lasts about 35 mins . These are unique and I doubt the footage has ever been shown to anyone so we are in for a treat!


Thanks
Steve
