The Great Gathering (Crewe Works September 2005) DVD - Description
The offical DVD of one of Europe's most prestigious ever railway events.
Celebrating more than 150 years of railway locomotive engineering at Crewe Works, the Great Gathering brings together a huge collection of preserved steam locomotives.
The collection includes 6233 Duchess of Sutherland, 6229 Duchess of Hamilton, 6204 Princess Elizabeth, 6203 Princess Margaret Rose, 5690 Leander, 71000 Duke of Gloucester, 4472 Flying Scotsman, 60009 Union of South Africa, 5972 Olton Hall & 7822 Foxcote Manor.
The old skills are rapidly disappearing and our nation's once strong engineering industries are said to be in decline. This is a not to be missed reminder of Britain's great engineering heritage.
DVD extras include trackside shots of Duchess of Sutherland, Princess Elizabeth, Leander and Blackmoor Vale.
