The Joy of Steam- DVD
55 mins. "Simply the mention of steam transports us all back in time to a golden age when locomotives billowed great white clouds into clear blue skies, as passengers were carried from one end of Britain to the other in the utmost style. And it wasn’t just on railway journeys that steam was providing power for the nation, because from fairgrounds and farmland, to the long and winding roads, steam traction engines were also playing their part.But the real Joy of Steam is the fact that these are far more than just glorious memories for those fortunate enough to have grown up with these wonderful machines. All across Great Britain today you’ll find steam rallies and preserved railways to visit, a number of which are featured in this programme. And better still, thanks to a wealth of genuine archive footage, enthusiasts of all ages can see for themselves exactly what steam power was all about. So, it’s all aboard for a journey to the past, when steam not only shaped the landscape of Great Britain, but also the nation’s heritage as well. "
