Part 6 – Manchester to Bury. A film of the steam age in the late 1960’s around the ex-Lancashire and Yorkshire’s Manchester Victoria station. The climb of Miles Platting bank at the time when steam worked out of the Bury platforms and where the trams now reign. There also is coverage of the LNWR’s Exchange station. Shed visits to Patricroft, and Newton Heath with an extensive footage of locomotives working there in 1965 such as Britannias, Ivatt 2-6-0′s, 2-6-4T’s, and visiting B1 and A2 amongst the resident Stanier types.
