London termini in the 1960s
Colour film of London's railway termini in the 1960s set to asoundtrack of pirate radio (Radio City 299 and Radio Caroline) and some TV theme tunes of the period.
Thanks to a reader for putting me on to this nostalgia gold.
Steam locomotives, carriages with corridors and porters to help with the luggage - that's what I call rail travel ! Liked the music too. Wiki pedia gives the full story of Radio City , whose owner was shot by the renegade Liberal, Oliver Smedley. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_City_(pirate_radio_station)
