Watch Series: Timeshift Released in (2002) - Season 8 - Episode 4 ,airing date 2008-10-16 produced by UK, The TV Series categorized in Documentary, and content rating TV-PG with duration 60 min broadcasted as these networks BBC Four, Streamed at Putlocker & directed by Francis Welch, Merryn Threadgold, Robert Murphy. Documentary which tells the surprising story of how Britain entered a new age of steam railways after the Second World War and why it quickly came to an end. After the war, the largely destroyed railways of Europe were rebuilt to carry more modern diesel and electric trains. Britain, however, chose to build thousands of brand new steam locomotives. These were designed to stay in service well into the 1970s, but in some cases they were taken off the railways and scrapped within just five years. When Dr Richard Beeching took over British Railways in the 1960s the writing was on the wall, and in 1968 the last steam passenger train blew its whistle. But while steam use declined, steam enthusiasm grew. As many steam engines lay rusting in scrapyards around Britain, enthusiasts raised funds to buy, restore and return them to their former glory. In 2008, the first new steam locomotive to be built in Britain in nearly 50 years rolled off the line, proving our enduring love of these machines.
