Joe Brown at Clapham
A light-hearted history of Britain's railways, seen through old prints, photographs and rare pieces of archive film as well as modern material to tell the story from Stephenson's Rocket to the new expresses. The film was made originally for a national children's competition. Pop-singer Joe Brown, a former railwayman, gives a happy-go-lucky narration as he comperes his group as they play railway songs in the Museum of British Transport at Clapham, where many of the most interesting items of railway history could then still be seen.
