BBC Timeshift

[Guest]

If anyone has the BBC i-player, there's a few interesting programmes in their Timeshift series.


One's about the history & popularity of model trains. It's actually presented seriously, rather than poking fun at hobby enthusiasts.


Another is about the rise of the British sports car, from immediately after ww2 to the release of the E type. Excellent interviews about Austin Healys & TR2s.


Put your anorak on, sit back & enjoy!

Sounds good. I've got a couple if classics and wouldn't mind a train set.

Thanks for pointing this out Patrick, I have watched the one about the rise of the British sports car and found it great. a great reference work for anyone making a model sports car.

The correct terminology is model railway....trainsets are for children!??

Fair point, I can see the difference - apologies to all offended by my error.
