- Steam Days in Colour 42: BR Standard 9F 2-10-0s at work
- The British Railways Standard 9F 2-10-0s were the finest freight locomotive to run on the railways of this country and were equally at home on express duties. Sadly many had an extremely short working life, so enjoy the sights of these handsome locomotives at work across the length and breadth of Great Britain.

- Summer Saturdays at Hereford
- Steve Bartlett takes us back to Hereford in 1963 when steam played a large part in the haulage of Summer Saturday cross-country West of England holiday expresses and South Wales trains over the North & West route. Hereford was also a busy interchange and starting point for a range of other services, which added variety to these workings.
