Excellent.

It is amazing how little things have changed in a hundred years.

Wish I could be the camera man on the steam run north of Harrow to Aylesbury.  Was he sitting on the buffer beam, or was there a truck in front of the loco? 

But don't believe the modern captions below.  The steam engine is at Harrow on the Hill not Preston Park.

That was a fabulous discovery. I was apprenticed at the British Thompson Houston Co
at Neasden and travelled that line between Northwick Park and Neasden every day '44/'49). I
thoroughly enjoyed the video. I was surprised to see  a station referred to as Preston
Park. During my travel on the line I am sure it was called Preston Road ( Or is it my tired
brain giving me yet another bum steer ? :(

Regards,

Donald
