Celebrating it's 40th year, Marc Tuckey goes behind the scenes of this award winning attraction to find out how a group of volunteers saved part of the Island's steam railway network with just 1 locomotive and a few carriages in 1971. That locomotive was 'Calbourne' and following 8 years of restoration, the flag ship locomotive is seen being prepared for duty just days after being returned to active service.
The DVD is actually Disc 2 of Attractions Tour Episode 2. We decided to release it on it's own for those who are only interested in trains!
