To the Seaside by Rail – Loco-Hauled Trains at Brundall Gardens | Summer 1991

Step back to a warm summer Saturday in August 1991, with this nostalgic look at loco-hauled trains passing through the picturesque surroundings of Brundall Gardens in Norfolk. Filmed on the busy Norwich to Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft routes, this video captures a fascinating snapshot of British Rail operations during the early 1990s, when seaside traffic was still dominated by locomotive-hauled services.
