One of a series of DVDs produced from rescued British Transport Film unit productions. "Snowdrift at Bleath Ghyll" is, in my opinion, the best produced documentary account of a railway "rescue" operation under attrocious conditions. I would recommend this DVD to any teacher of industrial history for viewing by Secondary School pupils. The commentary is excellent and the phrases used although dated are evocative of the situation. Used as advertising and education, in their day these productions were an important window on industry and it's development. Although I am not a rail enthusiasi I find the content riveting and the DVD is rarely in it's box for more than a week without being watched.
A great collection of the best British Transport films about railways, both in the steam and diesel ages, and about both transport and leisure. Good quality picture and sound. A glimpse into the past!
