8mm cine film shot by me in 1968/9 on the steam worked section of the NCB Bowes railway between Burnopfield colliery and Blackburn Fell drift mine in County Durham.
Locomotives based at Marley hill shed tackle the famous 1 in 20.4 gradient of Hobson's bank leading to Burnopfield colliery as well as working in the colliery yards.
Three austerity 0-6-0 saddle tanks and one 0-4-0 Andrew Barclay tank are seen and heard working hard on this steeply graded railway.
